Student demographics can be found below. A Title I school provides supplemental financial assistance to school districts for children from low-income families. Its purpose is to provide all children significant opportunity to receive a fair, equitable, and high-quality education. With about 63 teachers, Woodrow Wilson High School has a student/teacher ratio of about 12:1. The national average for public schools is about 15:1. A lower student/teacher ratio is a key factor that determines how much a teacher can devote his/her time to each individual student thus improving, or reducing (in the event of a higher student/teacher ratio) the attention each student is given for their educational needs.

In recent years, the institution has been the subject of significant transformation, reflecting the evolving landscape of education in Camden. As part of a larger district-wide initiative, the school has undergone structural and pedagogical shifts—including the transition to a themed academy model—designed to improve student engagement and academic outcomes.
