[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Wakefield is not wonderful and I would not suggest it for your child. My child is in intensified and AP classes - so many disruptive kids that your child will get distracted. Classes are slow and get boring for students who do the work. Go to Yorktown and hire your kid an executive function coach to help with homework and studying. [/quote] This has not been our experience in Wakefield intensified and AP classes at all. Some general ed classes have definitely been slow and frustrating; and I would consider "intensified" classes to be more what I expected standard level classes to be. But that may be because of my own high school experience which involved advanced classes - so that's what I expect to be the norm. Regardless, we're 3 years in with two kids and PP's opinion seems a broad characterization that does not align with our experiences. And one of our kids is particularly impatient with nonsense and boredom.[/quote]
