My experience at this school was honestly and sincerely amazing! Students seem very bright, and teachers know what they're doing.

I enjoyed being a student here. I, however, was only involved in advanced, high level, or AP courses, so my interactions with student and teachers involved in lower-level coursework were limited to very few classes or sports activities. My couches were dedicated and exceptional; one of my mile relay teammates for track went on to run for UCLA. I myself was incredibly effected by Mr. Miles and Mr. Brink a few years ago, which led to me working hard (albeit not as hard as I may have) and going on to attend UCLA.Overall, the faculty not involved in AVID or advanced classes were coarse, often rude, or beat-down by their inappropriate and rude students, and as a result were unwelcoming and uninspiring to myself as a self motivated individual -- I can only imagine if I were not so. On the flip side, administration and most of the faculty that were involved in advanced work were exceptional and kept me working towards my goal of higher education.The involvement of UCD, at least during my time as a student, was also unparalleled. Through The Seed, the learning center, UCD Math Circle (which was promoted by WHS faculty), and TANA (a free UCD-supported community art-making warehouse), I grew as both a student and as an individual.I believe that Woodland High School has leaps and bounds to make, but for those who are dedicated to its student and its growth as a learning community, do not falter in your efforts to help WHS succeed. I am but one success story that has come from those walls, and there have been and will be many more to come.Thank you for all that you have done.- S, c.o. 2014

Tafoya is an amazing school. The entire staff is friendly and the teachers go above and beyond their call of duty. My children love their school and all of the wonderful families here at Tafoya! Go Hawks!
