"This elementary school is the best in the area...the teachers are incredible and they are lead by an amazing principal who has been setting an academic standard of excellence for many years. Check out the recently added kinder-garden where the students can learn science with a hand-on experience. Also, a science teacher was added to teach the first and second graders in a dedicated science lab for 45 minutes each week!!"

"Woodland is the best kept secret in Newport-Mesa! The teachers are fantastic and the environment for learning one of the best. The teachers are accessible, open and focused on helping your student achieve their best. The front office staff is welcoming and cares about the students. It is also nice to have the K-2 format because the focus is on the primary grades. The students have a full computer lab, music program, "kinder-garden", reading specialists and science taught by a credentialed science teacher! The parent organizations, (the PFO and Foundation), also work together with the school to help provide some of these programs; and they continue to look for other areas to make Woodland even better."

"Wow! What an amazing group of teachers, students and parents at Woodland. I have been fortunate enough to have a WONDERFUL experience at both Woodland and Kaiser (the 3-6 feeder school across the street)! My two boys loved Woodland. I love Woodland! From the moment you walk on campus and see the beautifully painted murals depicting John Wooden's Pyramid of Success, you feel welcome! You then walk into the office where you are greeted with a smile and sometimes even open arms. I've never had a bad experience as other raters have had. They must have been having a really bad day when they filled out their rating. The campus is clean, safe, well organized and there are so many teachers working hard to challenge each child every day!!! They have an amazing computer lab, smart boards, new playground equipment, healthy food, highly qualified and educated teachers and a loving staff. I find it hard to believe what the other raters have said about the staff members. Very hard to believe. Check out for yourself what a great school it is. PS Principal is spelled with PrinciPAL, not principle:)"
