Overview
It's a Great Day to be at the Forrest!
Woodland Forrest Elementary is a place where students quickly learn that “#Discovery Starts Here!” Located on 15 acres of land, we currently serve 532 students, pre-K through 5th grade. Our school follow the LEADERS: Listen, Explore, Achieve, Determine, Engage, Reflect and Serve. We encourage our students to follow these characteristics to broaden their horizons.
We are STEM-focused, emphasizing a well-rounded academic approach to Science, Technology, English, and Math for all students through cross-curriculum integration, community partnerships, and events for family involvement.
As a Discovering Alabama model school, Woodland Forrest takes great interest in ensuring that all students are discovering that science is exciting and the environment is worth saving. It has opened many doors for programs and partnerships within the community to give our students a learning experience that is unique to Woodland Forrest Elementary School.
