Summary:
The city of Bridgeville, Delaware is home to two schools, Woodbridge Middle School and Phillis Wheatley Elementary School, both part of the Woodbridge School District. While the district is ranked 21 out of 32 in the state with a 2-star rating, the performance of these individual schools is mixed, with no clear standouts.
Woodbridge Middle School struggles with low test scores, significantly below state averages in core subjects, and a high chronic absenteeism rate of 24.9%. In contrast, Phillis Wheatley Elementary School has a 3-star rating and more mixed performance, with some grades above and some below state averages in English Language Arts and Mathematics. Both schools have diverse student populations, with a mix of White, African American, and Hispanic students, but the data does not provide information on potential achievement gaps between these groups.
Despite relatively high spending per student at both schools, the academic outcomes remain a concern. Addressing the high chronic absenteeism rates, improving test scores, and identifying and addressing any achievement gaps should be priorities for the Woodbridge School District to ensure all students in Bridgeville receive a high-quality education.
