It's a good school. The teachers are fair and most do care about their students. Wakefield is a decent high school.

It is a good school, but it needs some change with the consolers and the 80% retake policy which is basically if you get more than 80% on a test, you can't retake. Even though people that got 80% less getting more than one chance to get better.
