My child graduated with the class of 2009. He graduated having taken 6 AP classes, which translated into 19 credits accepted by his university. He participated in fall, winter and spring sports and believed the diversity of the student population greatly enhanced his high school experience. The counselors did an excellent job of keeping him on track senior year, as the college selection/application process and senior social activities demanded more and more of his time. The Senior Project experience required that he work independently; he gained confidence and became a more responsible student because of it. The relationships he developed with students, teachers and administrators are strong and meaningful. I believe he was exceedingly well prepared for college by the teachers and staff at Wakefield.
I really like Wakefield, it's a great school just like Yorktown and W&L The only thing that bothers me is that we are the last school to get remodle...but other then that i like it. Most of the staff are cool and you learn a lot at wakefield.
Its a really good high school that prepares your child for high school. They have alot of fun and have really good teachers.
I must be missing something. This can't be the Wakefield high I know. My child is in the 11th grade and ever since he has attended this school he could never get the right classes or the right language courses. Because of this he will not be getting his Advance diploma next year. Some of the staff are not organized when comes to handeling the paper work and some of the Teachers don't have a heart or feelings for that matter. The principle does not call you back when you need an answer, she leaves it up to a staff member to get in contact with you. I attended a few PTA meetings but there only concern was 'how much money can we raise for the Senior Prom or that boat trip the students take in their last year. Wakefield is more concerned with accolades then student achievements.
