At R.D. Wood School we are committed to preparing our students both academically and socially to be successful. We work with parents, community leaders, teachers and students to do well in school. We have worked diligently over the last year improving technology and have access to the latest computer programs, IPODS, computer labs and technology initiatives what will help our students excel.
R.D. Wood School, named after Richard Wood, one of Millville’s entrepreneurs, was constructed on land donated by the Millville Manufacturing Company in 1916 to provide an elementary education to the children in Millville’s Third Ward. It has a proud heritage of educational excellence and is Millville’s oldest operating school. Today, Wood School is pursuing their education in grades Kindergarten to Fifth grade.
R.D. Wood School has always been a viable member of the community and we have increased our involvement with community organizations. These organizations have helped our students and their parents by donating a pair of shoes for every student, over 500 turkeys for Thanksgiving, hundreds of coats and gloves, and their time to help the students of Wood School. We believe as educators that we must not only help students in school but also help them with their needs at home.
