Woodrow Wilson High School is an alternative high school.  Learning goals and graduation requirements are the same at other Fargo Public Schools high schools, though the format and climate differ significantly.  Class sizes are capped at 18 students, and every student is assigned a staff advisor.  This practice allows the school to focus on the needs of each individual student.  Students attend two classes per day.  Classes are 2 1/2 hours in length and should take an average of 27 days to complete.  Some classes are self-paced while others are teacher-directed.  The basic structure and rules of this alternate school makes students responsible for their own education experiences.   Volunteerism is a major focus at Woodrow Wilson.  All students are encouraged to participate in monthly volunteer projects arranged by the school.  These range from work on Habitat for Humanity homes to producing quilts for the Linus Project to an annual blood drive.  Students assist in planning and carrying out these projects.
