Its available proficiency rates are 76.38% in English language arts and 74.80% in math. West Woodland leads Adams by about 13 percentage points in both subjects, while Adams’ science result is suppressed and cannot be compared. Both schools exceed district and state averages in available measures.
Recent trends favor West Woodland as well. From the prior year, it improved in English language arts, math, and science, and its statewide rank rose from 40th to eighth over the three years shown. Adams’ math performance was essentially unchanged, English language arts declined slightly, and its rank moved from 35th to 79th, though it remains highly rated. Available grade-level results are especially strong at West Woodland, including 92% in third-grade math and 90.16% in fifth-grade English language arts. Adams shows its strongest grade-level results in fourth grade, with 83.05% in English language arts and 77.97% in math. Families may also note that West Woodland reports a lower free- or reduced-price lunch rate and somewhat higher per-student spending, while student-teacher ratios are nearly identical; these figures provide context but do not explain school performance.
