Student population for grades K-12 exceeds 10,600 with an annual growth rate of approximately .5%. A $40 million construction bond (1999) allowed our second 4-year high school to open in the fall of 2003 with full occupation completed in fall of 2005. The bond also provided for modernization of most existing facilities.

The WJUSD is governed by a seven (7) member Board of Trustees, with residence in one of three geographical electoral district, although they are elected at large. The District serves students in a 305 square mile area mostly in Yolo County. The district also includes a small area of southern Sutter County. While most District students live in the City of Woodland, several rural communities are within the district's boundaries. The District has a diverse ethnic and culturally enriched population.

With a budget of $77,700,000 for 2006-07, the District has adequate reserves to meet fiscal uncertainties. The District's 2006-07 revenue limit of $5,541.75 per ADA supports a wide variety of programs and a staff of 703 certificated and management employees and 581 classified employees.

The Woodland Joint Unified District was formed in July 1965, when it united elementary and high school districts.
