7/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageI spent all 4 years at this high school, and my experience is kind of iffy. Yes, there were some good teachers, but other teachers at this school were horrible. The teacher's use some of the same methods of teaching that were used during the covid years, just showing videos and not explaining or going over what was learned. The environment is not welcoming and fights happen every week at the school, providing an unsafe environment for students there actually trying to learn. The school also only prepares you for college if you are staying in-state, if you're planning on going to an out of state school, nobody is going to help you. The school will also prioritize the students doing well in classes and not give an equal opportunity to students having problems learning, some teachers only teaching in a way that is made to help certain types of students learn (like type a learners). In addition to the horrible education at this school, the funding for programs goes mainly to athletics, leaving little to no money for other programs. Overall, I would not recommend a parent looking to send their child to this school unless they are looking to emotionally traumatize them.Other Review2y ago - Wake Forest Middle School

4/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageWake Forest Middle School has been such a wonderful experience for my family. From day one, we felt welcomed and supported by the staff, teachers, and administration. The communication is strong, the expectations are clear, and you can tell that the school truly cares about the success and well-being of every student.My child has grown academically and socially since attending WFMS. The teachers go above and beyond to make sure students understand the material, offering extra help when needed and encouraging them to do their best. I also appreciate the way the school focuses on both academics and character; it really shows in the way students interact with each other and with staff.The school offers great extracurricular opportunities, and the environment feels safe, structured, and positive. As a parent, it means a lot to see my child excited to go to school and proud of the progress they’re making.I’m grateful for the dedication of the WFMS community, and I highly recommend Wake Forest Middle School to any family looking for a supportive and engaging learning environment.Parent Review5mo ago - Richland Creek Elementary School
