Woodland

Woodland is a public elementary school serving pre-kindergarten through third grade in Weston, Massachusetts, with 324 students enrolled. It earns a composite score of 9.1 out of 10 — an Exceptional rating — built on a perfect 10.0 academic score and a strong 8.7 for growth. The numbers make a sharp case.

Woodland outperforms 97% of public schools in Massachusetts and ranks 34th among 1,022 elementary schools statewide, placing it in the top 4% of all elementary programs in the state. That standing holds across the full field too: measured against all 1,791 Massachusetts public schools, Woodland sits at number 48. A student-teacher ratio of 13.5 to 1 keeps class sizes tight across all four grade levels, supporting the kind of focused instruction the scores reflect.

Academic performance is the defining strength. A 10.0 academic score sits at the ceiling of the rating scale, signaling achievement levels that few schools in the state reach. The 8.7 growth score adds meaningful depth — students aren't just arriving ahead, they're continuing to gain year over year.

For families with children in pre-K through third grade, Woodland represents one of the strongest academic environments available anywhere in Massachusetts.
