Woodland has uncrowded rooms so that each child is taught almost on a one-on-one basis. This is important to learning. The teachers are not only strong in discipline but are nurturing as well. There is a sense of union with the students in common goals and there is no discrimination as you might find in other schools. Students are encouraged to read and are taught writing skills at an early age. They are given the opportunity to sign on to a reading website the school has purchased so that every child is given the same opportunity no matter what economic standing they may have. This school should be considered a N.C. Charter School and should extend to the 12th grade. Parent participation is paramount and meets all expectations.

Woodland is a wonderful school. Every teacher there treats your child as their own and goes beyond the call of duty to help the children. It is like we are all one big happy family. I wish Woodland would go thru 12th grade.

Woodland has quality education with excellent academic programs. They have a wonderful music, arts and sports department. The parental involvement with Woodland is definately the best in Person County!

About the tests


In 2011-2012 North Carolina used End-of-Grade (EOG) tests to assess students in grades 3 through 8 and 10 in reading and math, and grades 5, 8, and 10 in science. The EOG is a standards-based test, which means it measures how well students are mastering specific skills defined for each grade by the state of North Carolina. Students must pass the grade 8 EOG test in order to graduate from high school. The goal is for all students to score at or above the proficient level on the tests.
