We moved from Haddonfield to the Bridgeton area so we could send our children to Woodland Country Day School and are thrilled with our choice. Every teacher is sincerely committed to educating and encouraging the growth and development of each child, so they can achieve the best version of themselves. The curriculum is challenging and creates an extraordinary foundation for organization, independence, and responsibility for your child. The focus on respect, manners, and social responsibility in the community will provide your child with life skills that will make them a leader in any situation. With thriving, music, drama, arts, and athletics programs, the school allows your child to express themselves through numerous outlets. An investment in a Woodland education is most certainly an investment in your child's future and we are so grateful an institution of this caliber is available in our community.

Wonderful family feel among students, parents, faculty, and staff. Rigorous curriculum balanced with fun and creativity. Great art, music, & theater program as well as core curriculum and P.E program. Every child graduates knowing now to read music. Full day pre-k 3 and pre-k 4 grades offered. Preschoolers take music, Spanish, and even science with lab! Love it
