Why Woodbridge?

Overview

Why Woodbridge?

Woodbridge is a neighborhood school that puts children first. We are the oldest school (founded in 1935) in the Roseville City School District and are deeply rooted with strong traditions. Our staff combines these traditions and embraces best educational practice strategies to help our students reach their personal best every day.

Woodbridge teachers and staff continuously evaluate how to reach the academic, social, and emotional needs of each student. During the 2014-2015 school year Woodbridge transitioned into a K-4 campus, after having been K-3 for many years. In 2015-2016, it included fifth grade. Woodbridge also added a transitional kindergarten program in 2015-2016, in order for students to receive stronger instruction that leads to early success.

We are a proud PBIS school! PBIS stands for: Positive Behavior Intervention System. We believe that positive student behavior and strong student engagement creates lifelong learners.  PBIS provides a foundation for teaching our 4 school-wide expectations and celebrating students using our expectations. The 4 Woodbridge  PBIS expectations are: 

  • Be safe
  • Be respectful
  • Be responsible
  • Be a problem solver

Woodbridge is a proud AVID (Advancement Via Individual Determination) school! Woodbridge was named the first AVID certified elementary school in our District! AVID teaches skills and behavior for academic success; provides intensive support with tutorials with strong student/teacher relationships; creates a positive peer group for students; and develops a sense of hope for personal achievement gained through hard work and determination.

Woodbridge is supported by parent and community volunteers, which are the PTC and the School Site Council. The PTC is made up of parents/guardians, teachers and staff who seek to better the educational opportunities for our students. The Site Council is made up of an equal number of parents/guardians and staff who are elected by their peers. The Site Council shares in decision-making regarding school programs and goals.
