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.

This is my son first year at Wakefield Middle School and he really enjoys the schools' atmosphere. The teachers are very supportive of his academic needs and are always pushing him to be his best. He especially loves his ELA teacher; he says his teachers are rigorous but at the same time loving/caring.

We have been at Wakefield High School for 3 years now with our oldest and are truly enjoying it! The Wakefield schools are located in the heart of a beautiful and supportive community in north Raleigh. There are numerous rigorous course offerings and more club offerings than you can count. They ranked in the top 4% in the state for student academic growth. The sports programs are solid and often times also top ranking at the district and state level. Overall, very happy with Wakefield High and look forward to the rest of our kids being Wolverines soon!

This school is a terrible choice for parents and students looking for a supportive teachers. Teachers will rarely listen to or try to understand a student's point of view. The administration will ignore many student concerns without any investigation unless parents interfere. Many of the work handed is just busy work and rarely has an impact on student learning. There are some helpful teachers but there are even more cruel teachers. It's incredibly hard to fix grades that a student didn't deserve without parental interference. The courses offered are very restrictive as well.

I have had an amazing experience as a student at this school. This has made me not only ready for college but also the professional world. Throughout my four years here I was able to grow and learn through the help of the incredible students and staff. I can't wait to see what Wake STEM becomes.

While we have had a few bumps getting our boy engaged, the leadership have been great partners with looking at options. This school is a college prep school so there is not an emphasis in the Arts, but more a focus on core curriculum. We love that there are male teachers teaching our boy as they provide examples of strong role models. We love the uniforms!

All teachers are very attentive and helpful especially Principal Baker during this pandemic. We are very lucky to belong to a school who treats the children as their own.
