History

This section needs expansion. You can help by adding to it. (January 2024)

It was established in 1990 when the Fairfax and Ralston school districts merged.

In 2002 the Burbank school district dissolved, with a portion going to Woodland.

Beginning in the 2013–2014 school year, the district stopped sending certain data to the Oklahoma Department of Education and the United States Department of Education (ED). Circa 2021 the ED asked about 17,000 school districts to respond to a request, and Woodland was the sole district not to comply.
