Located at the northern tip of the Shenandoah Valley, James Wood High School was established in 1950 on Amherst Street as the High School for Frederick County, Virginia.  James Wood High School is rich in history and tradition.


As Frederick County grew, the need for
a larger school became evident. In
1981, the Ridge Campus, on Apple Pie
Ridge Road, was opened. Between 1981
and 1993, James Wood High School
operated two campuses serving 9th and
10th grade students at the Amherst
Campus and 11th and 12th grade
students at the Ridge Campus.
