It is an honor to be a parent of the Wakefield High School Senior! I really appreciate dedication and effort of the faculty and staff. Special THANK YOU to his School Counselor.

My children have had an extraordinary experience at Wakefield. Take the greatschools rating with a grain of salt. It is the diversity of the student body and the awesome staff that make Wakefield a wonderful place to go to school.

I was worried about Wakefield because of the lower ranking (beware of the trolls) but the school has been nothing but outstanding. First, the facility is brand new and makes for an excellent learning environment. The staff and faculty are outstanding and responsive. The curricular choices prepare students for college. Numerous extra curricular opportunities from sports to academic choices are available for students to take advantage of if they choose to do so. As any school, it takes a village to support the student and it starts at home--you will receive the support you need from the school! So many of the graduating seniors have gone to Ivy league and highly ranked colleges. Parents need to make sure they support their child--be involved and know who their child's friends are and if you don't get to know their friends and parents. If you start seeing issues with your child, talk to the teacher. The teachers will tell you. We love Wakefield!
