History

[edit]

In 2005 the district purchased a plot of land to build a new high school.[4] In 2007 the district received public comments recommending that it build a new high school building funded by a bond, with the expected amount of the bond being $50 million.[5] In January 2008 voters were offered a vote on the bond but they rejected it, so the district at the time proposed leasing the land for farmers.[4]

On August 31, 2015 Woodland High School moved from 757 Park Street (45°54′15″N 122°44′54″W / 45.9042°N 122.7483°W / 45.9042; -122.7483) to its newly constructed current location at 1500 Dike Access Road (45°55′46″N 122°45′52″W / 45.9295°N 122.7644°W / 45.9295; -122.7644).

In 2020 Phillip Pearson became the principal.[6]
