Woodlands has some of the best teachers around. Students are more than prepared for college as the teachers and administration ensure their success. As a college freshman I was quite prepared and continually thank my teachers at Woodlands for their care, concern, and dedication to superiour and quality education. Woodlands also has a strong overseas representation and students are exposed to a variety of cultures and world views. My only complaint is that students have too much time. During my senior year, 5 of my 9 periods were 'free' which left me with plenty of time to study, but I would have gladly sacrificed my frees for a wider course selection. Woodlands is seriously lacking in course selection. Aside from that, I had a great experience at the Sacred Heart, as every graduate is truly considered a part of the Sacred Heart family.
Woodlands is an amazing school that provides learning opportunities for a hundreds of girls each year. The girls are able to be themselves and thrive in a loving atmosphere. In terms of academics, the work is challenging and prepares the girls for college and university. The teachers are very intelligent and well-informed. The history department is especially superb. I highly recommend Woodlands because it is an exceptional school.
