Summary

Woodland Alternative School is a small public high school in Woodland, Washington, serving grades 9–12 and enrolling 96 students. It is part of the Woodland School District, which ranks at the 61st percentile statewide, while the school itself ranks at the 20th percentile for 2025–2026. Because it is an alternative program with a much smaller and potentially different student population than traditional high schools, comparisons should be viewed as useful context rather than a complete measure of school quality.

The school’s strongest recent improvement is graduation: its rate rose to 79.0% in 2024–2025, the highest in its five-year series, although it remained below the district’s 86.4% and Washington’s 82.6%. The latest rate was also below Woodland High School at 89.4%, but well above Summit View High School at 45.6%. Earlier dropout rates at Woodland Alternative were comparatively high, but the school-level rate is unavailable for the two most recent years, so current progress cannot be confirmed. The school’s 44.79% economically disadvantaged-student rate was similar to Woodland High School’s 48.28%.

Current academic results are uneven. Only 23.53% of students were proficient in English language arts in 2025–2026, compared with 53.62% in the district and 55.63% at Woodland High School, making ELA the clearest area for improvement. Math proficiency was 29.41%, nearly identical to Woodland High School’s 29.33%, though below state and district levels. The latest science result is suppressed, so it is unknown. Reported student-teacher ratios have been much higher than at nearby traditional schools, and per-student spending is lower than at most comparisons. Overall, the school shows meaningful graduation progress but needs stronger, more consistent academic outcomes—especially in ELA—and better current information about dropout and science performance.
