WCW HISTORY
A new intermediate school, Vaca Pena Intermediate School, was built on the south side of Vacaville. Seventh graders went to Vaca Pena rather than to Wood. In 1988 Wood began its transition to a four-year high school. That year Wood had 8th, 9th, and 10th graders. Construction was started to complete Wood as a high school. A new gymnasium, locker room, classroom wing, office complex, cafeteria, and theater were added. Each year a new class was added. The 1991 - 1992 school year was the first year that Will C. Wood was a complete four year high school. However, the facility was never completed. 1992 was our first graduating class. In 2007-2008, Will C. Wood begins a three phase modernization process. This is a 35 million dollar project funded by the Measure V Bond initiative passed in 2003. The first phase of this project includes a new lower field complex that will improve our physical education facility as well as enhance our ability to hold athletic events on campus. Will C. Wood will be able to use the facility for athletics and school activities. The second phase of the project is the addition of a state of the art science wing. This will be a two story building that will add valuable classroom space as well as provide our students and staff with a science facility that we can all be proud of. And finally, the third phase of the project will include many upgrades to our quad and current teaching stations as well as in improvement of our technology infrastructure and boys locker room. Wood has had a total of six principals: Nancy Klees 1969 - 1977
