Children spend a lot of time outdoors at Woodland School. We are fortunate to be located on 10 acres of open land, giving our students access to outdoor space every day during recess, lunch and PE. Teachers utilize three outdoor classrooms throughout each week. In addition, Early Childhood students (PS, PK) can choose to explore both the indoor and outdoor classroom throughout the day, Lower School students (K-4) have an outdoor science garden and Middle School students (5-8) also have plenty of fresh air during passing periods to classes. Our Extended Day program also utilizes the outdoor space every day.

The House system is a long-standing tradition at Woodland School. Students in grades K-8 are inducted into one of four houses - Cypress, Maple, Oak, or Pine - at the beginning of their first year at Woodland and remain in the same house throughout their Woodland career. Younger siblings are inducted into the same house as older siblings.

Students in preschool and pre-kindergarten are our "Saplings" until they are inducted into a house their Kindergarten year.

Woodland's House system is the only one of its kind on the west coast and is inspired by the European boarding school house systems, which help to enrich the school community across grade levels. Students come together with their house every month and participate in friendly House Cup Games three times per school year.
