What makes Woodward Different:
- Small class sizes: 7-to-1 student-to-teacher ratio
- Whole-child learning: An evidence-based approach to teaching, with focus on the link between academic success and social-emotional learning
- STEAM Focus: Students learn about scientific processes through hands-on experimentation, and our STEAM specialists collaborate with teachers to integrate technology into social studies, science, and language arts.
- Wide-ranging extracurriculars: Students can explore a wide array of activities both during and after the school day, including a variety of intramural sports, chess, robotics, and more.
- Embrace of the arts: Students explore and expand their creative horizons in our visual art classes—drawing, creating, painting, and even making ceramics in our on-site kiln with the assistance of teachers. They’ll sing and play instruments when they take music classes, and dance is an option, too.
- 100% college acceptance: Woodward seniors achieve 100 percent acceptance to top four-year colleges and universities and earn more than $30 million in scholarships.
- Five-star reviews: An A+ Niche score & 5 star Private School Review rating
“ Woodward is a school that recognizes no two children are alike and serves as a compass in helping each find their unique passions, interests, and talents.”

Woodward has managed to surpass my every expectation! The communication with parents and students is excellent. The advising, counseling, and learning resource team is actively involved with supporting students and happy to engage with parents when helpful. While my daughter is shy and hasn't jumped into to many activities in high school, the options available to her make me wish I could go back to school! Most of all, it is her teachers who have blown me away. For the first time, she is excited by her classes. She is challenged, engaged, and known as a person and a learner. That alone is worth every penny!

I was a K-12 attendee at Woodward, and I learned more applicable skills and systems to achieve my goals than I ever did getting my Mechanical Engineering degree at college. My wife and I plan on sending my children there. The diversity and quality of students in my class has made for life-long friendships that couldn't be matched.

We love Woodward Academy. Woodward is a diverse community of learners that truly focuses on excellence, character, and opportunity. My kids have had more opportunities at Woodward, even as just primary school students! They have learned about other cultures at the primary school and celebrated with classmates. They have had the opportunity to be introduced to new instruments, art media, dance techniques, and languages than they would at another school.
