We feel very fortunate that our son attends Woodland Hills Academy. Transitioning from elementary to middle school can be a big adjustment, and it was important to find a community where our son would be known, supported, and valued.WHA’s administration, teachers, counselors, special education team, and support staff show genuine care for our son’s academic growth, social-emotional well-being, and overall success. He is a student with an IEP who learns alongside general education peers with individualized support and accommodations while following an alternate curriculum. We appreciate the staff’s communication and collaboration to help ensure he is included, encouraged, and able to learn at an appropriate pace.WHA’s approach extends beyond academics. The school understands that middle school students need guidance, encouragement, character-building, and belonging. We have seen a commitment to helping students become more independent, responsible, and confident.While we value every member of the WHA staff, we would especially like to recognize several individuals whose dedication and collaborative spirit make a meaningful difference.Mr. Swanston, WHA’s Principal, has brought great spirit, energy, and a clear sense of direction to the school. He is a natural collaborator who works closely with staff to create a positive, welcoming environment for students and families. His enthusiasm for WHA and care for its students are felt throughout the school.Mrs. Ojeda, WHA’s Community School Coordinator, is truly amazing. Her thoughtful approach and ongoing collaborative efforts bring together students, families, staff, and community resources in meaningful ways that benefit the school.Ms. Hans, WHA’s Magnet Coordinator, helps foster a rigorous, inquiry-based environment that encourages students to think critically, develop their identities, and become engaged, compassionate, and responsible global citizens.The communication from staff has been thoughtful and responsive. When questions or concerns arise, we have consistently felt heard and supported. It is clear that many people at WHA work very hard behind the scenes to create a safe, welcoming, and positive school environment.Our son has grown so much at WHA, and we are grateful for those who know him, believe in him, and celebrate his successes. We feel lucky to be part of the WHA community and recommend it to families seeking a caring, inclusive, community-minded middle-school experience.

Paul Revere Middle School should not be attended by any child who is gifted or has a 504. I asked about the GATE program and the lead counselor actually laughed. I have to distribute the 504 to the teachers ( allergies) and discovered administration did not give it to them .There are fights all the time. The administration only communicates with the head of the booster club- Pride, especially during emergencies. It's pretty much a clique with toxic parent WhatsApp groups. Working with the counselors is an absolute nightmare, they will try to discourage your child from any challenging class; I have examples but the school would know who I am and potentially take it out on my child. Additionally, the magnet is not self contained. In the tours they sell it like it is a school within a school with attention for your advanced learner. But, it is really just 1800 kids that go to school together and you are just a number. Lots of MAGA families. STAY AWAY FROM THIS PRISON.

My daughter is very Happy at this school. I feel like everyone does their part at this school. Great communication, you can feel the positivity all around. I’m Looking forward to my daughter future achievements from this school.

I had a highly gifted child (deemed gifted by LAUSD and an outside psychologist) in this school and the teacher refused to accommodate to the students needs. She also told us she thought something was “wrong with (students) head” and to have the student checked. We moved schools and the student is thriving with a great teacher. We met with the principal regarding the incident and when she went to bring in the teacher…she couldn’t find the teacher. She wasn’t even in the classroom and nobody knew where she was. When we moved schools we asked for the report card and she refused to send it. So the student has a semester with no report card. I tried to send a complaint letter to LAUSD but because the student doesn’t fit into any “marginalized” groups, they refused to do anything. Do not put your child here. No idea how they have a 9/10 rating. Also when winds are up or there’s too much rain you have to take your child to Woodland Hills Academy.

School consistently violates section 504 and does not adhere to the rules. This is an independent charter school who will not spend a dime if they can for a 504 qualified student. They claim 'academic excellence", while suppressing the ones that need the assistance. They specifically ignore girls with ADHD learning disabilities and refuse accommodations. You think they would have learned the first time they violated it. They just create new ways to violate it and discriminate.
