Wake Forest High School

I do not attend but from the outside looking in it seems that the school and school board are doing well and have handled the last few challenging years with caution and safe practices. I appreciate that.

Would not recommend to put your children into this school horrible facility, communication, they don't care about the children.

Wouldn’t recommend d this school to anybody..waste.

I absolutely loved my experience at Wake Forest High School! Yes, there were some downs to it, but what high school doesn't have them? This school shouldn't be judged on those few kids who cause violence and disturb the learning environment. We should focus on the 99% of the hardworking students, there to learn and succeed in life. The teachers are great! They go over topics repeatedly to make sure the students understand it. Questions are always welcome and the teachers are always more than happy to explain something. The students are very accepting and friendly. You will feel at home in no time. What really motivated me was the school spirit. Everyone is so enthusiastic and it's like a big family feeling. Sometimes it's difficult to work hard at your studies if you don't support your school. The football and soccer teams are the most popular w/ friday night games every week. The library is open with 2 full sets of computer labs, open from 6:30 am- 4:00 pm. You can also come during Lunch (with a pass, of course). I must admit, the hallways get pretty crowded. That's why it's very important to scout out your classroom before school, and figure out different routes to take to your next class in case there is a traffic jam in the hallways. Another thing I love about WFHS, is Cougar Time. This is a 30-min. time frame students get every day, designated to catch students up on late or missing assignments. For those students who are all caught up, they can spend the time talking to their friends in the cafeteria or the gym, work on some homework or study in the media center, or just take a break and surf the web. This is a wonderful school, with great resources, and a loving community of faculty and staff. You're sure to love it here!

I am a current junior at the school. I came in last year and I am happy here so far, some of the teachers do little to teach but most are great teachers. The theatre, though underfunded, is really great!
