GreatSchools Rating
Parent Rating Average
This is our first year at this school. My son has thoroughly enjoyed his kindergarten experience. He has been getting good grades all year, especially in reading. He started the school year off knowing how to read and ended the school year reading chapter books proficiently. His spelling is great. He started the school year not knowing how to hold a pencil properly and now knows how to hold it and his writing is great. He loves his teacher and teachers assistant. He has made many friends. He is a picky eater but enjoys the lunch food. He really loves the different specials that they have. Stem is one of his favorites. PE is another favorite because they do a lot of different fun activities. His teacher does a wonderful job at communicating with us. He uses an app to talk to families and we’ve never had any issues with that. Overall I think my son really loves his school, I love his school and I feel proud to say my son goes to Wakefield Elementary.

"A real sense of community. We all look out for each other; never is it as obvious as when the last bad storm came through. Everyone was out the next morning helping to clean up tree limbs and leaves from the entire cut-de-sac, not just their own yard, sharing tools, equipment and man power. "

"I am retired. When I worked my commute was 40+ minutes. However, it was quite scenic, crossing the lake and past several horse farms. "

"There are quite a few dog owners in my neighborhood. Most are responsible owners, but there are those that walk their dogs at night and allow them to relieve themselves in their neighbors yards. This is the part I dislike. I sit on my porch at night and you wouldn’t believe the things I see dog owners allow their dogs to do."

"Dog owners walk their dogs and there are trails in the common area for dogs to run. The lots sizes are big enough to have privacy from other neighbors. Fences are allowed. "
