What Woodland Public Schools does

Woodland Public Schools is a public K-12 school district and political subdivision of Washington State, headquartered at 800 Second Street, Woodland, WA. The district operates nine schools and programs serving Woodland, Yale, and Cougar families: three elementary schools (Columbia, North Fork, Yale) covering grades K-4; Woodland Middle School (grades 5-8); Woodland High School (grades 9-12); TEAM High School (alternative high school); Lewis River Academy (a K-8 homeschool partnership program offering K12, Odysseyware, and Edgenuity curricula with Washington State Certified teacher support); and Partners in Transition. Specialized services include special education, highly capable programs, multilingual learner support, Title I/LAP, and pre-school.

The district's technology stack is built on third-party platforms rather than proprietary systems. Core operational infrastructure runs on Skyward (Qmlativ) for student information, enrollment, attendance, and grade reporting via Family Access. Digital learning is delivered through Google Workspace for Education (Classroom, Meet, Mail, Docs, Calendar), with i-Ready for diagnostic math and reading assessment, GoGuardian for device management, and TalkingPoints for text-based parent communication. Curriculum at Lewis River Academy leverages K12 (K-5), Odysseyware (5-8), and Edgenuity (6-8) online platforms.

Woodland Public Schools operates as a government entity funded by Washington State education allocations based on Full-Time Equivalent student enrollment, supplemented by local voter-approved maintenance and operations levies, federal Title and special education grants, and occasional community grants (e.g., $2,000 from D & PS Restaurant LLC in April 2026). Services are provided free of charge to district residents, with revenue model fundamentally different from a commercial enterprise — the district generates no tuition revenue and operates under governmental accounting standards. GTM is direct-to-consumer through the Skyward online enrollment portal and in-person registration at the Registration Office (800 Third Street), supported by KWRL Transportation for bus services.
