Summary:
The city of Greenwood, Delaware is home to two schools: Woodbridge High School and Woodbridge Early Childhood Education Center. These schools serve a diverse student population, with significant percentages of White, African American, and Hispanic students.
Woodbridge High School is a relatively large high school with 723 students, but it has consistently ranked in the bottom half of Delaware high schools, with a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school's academic performance is a concern, with only 23.9% of 11th graders proficient or better in ELA and 7.55% in Math on the SAT in 2023-2024. Additionally, the school has a high chronic absenteeism rate of 18.6% in 2022-2023, which may be impacting student learning and outcomes.
In contrast, Woodbridge Early Childhood Education Center serves grades PK-2 with 592 students and is ranked in the middle of Delaware elementary schools, with a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger. However, the school also has a high chronic absenteeism rate of 25.1% in 2022-2023, which is a concern. The similar per-student spending at the high school and elementary school ($14,899 and $14,969, respectively) suggests that funding may not be the primary driver of the academic performance differences between the two schools.
