School Overview

Situated on the island city of Alameda, Will C. Wood Middle sits in a community known for its tree-lined streets, tight-knit neighborhoods, and strong civic pride — the kind of place where parents are genuinely invested in their kids' schools. Wood holds its own academically, performing solidly above the state middle, which is no small feat given California's competitive landscape. Families who value a balanced school experience within a walkable, small-town-feeling city — while still being minutes from Oakland and the broader Bay Area — will find a lot to like here.
