Woodson was the first public school I attended. It was a hard adjustment, but I could not have asked for a better experience. The atmosphere of the school is welcoming, nonjudgemental, and kind. I loved going to school because of the amazing teachers and students. There are many resources for students who may be struggling in certain subject matter or want extra help, such as the Writing and Math centers. Clubs and sports are where many students can find their community. Woodson is known for its great athletic programs, winning many district, regional, and state championships. I have been on the Varsity volleyball program since freshman year, and I am so grateful for it. I was able to meet new people and make friends before school even started. Woodson students are high acheiving in everything they do, specifically acedemics. Overall, Woodson is a great school that prepares you for the future while having many fun and memorable experiences along the way!
Woodson offers a variety of clubs and varsity sports. The majority of teachers, and Ms. Nguyen (Guidance Counselor) have been phenomenal! All administrators who I have had any interaction with have shown that the students best interests are at heart. The students lack diversity in some aspects of life. Very sheltered from the reality of our country because they have lived in a comfortable bubble of northern Virginia.
I recently graduated from Woodson (Class of 2021), and I can say with certainty that my 4 years there were some of the best and most challenging times in my academic career! The teachers were wonderful and the school spirit was great. Even though the last 2 years were severely affected by COVID, the school worked hard to make sure students were given all the opportunities available! Proud to say I was a Cavalier!
