I have had three kids go through Wakefield Forest, with two still finishing up. When we started under the prior principal, I really loved the school. It was welcoming, honest, fair, and the administration listened to and partnered with parents. The current principal (who was previously the assistant
Posted by a parent on 6/7/2022Wakefield Forest is a gem! A neighborhood school on the smaller side, it's a reason why many families choose to locate here. Our kids love it. Principal Prindle seems able to get to know many of the families and kids. She's proactive about communicating regularly to parents via email and social medi
Posted by a community member on 6/23/2021Overall very poor experience. Advanced students are ignored until the school administered test is given. Classrooms are crowded with 29 children per teacher.

3/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageMy children have attended Braddock ES and we have had great experiences with their staff specially teachers. My children have been able to continue with their Spanish immersion, advanced academics program and have been very successful. I highly recommend Braddock ES to old and new residents of Annandale, VA. Thank you.Parent Review1y ago - Camelot Elementary School

7/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageMilitary family here. We have moved and had kids enrolled at so many different schools in different states and DOD schools.
