[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Thanks. OP here. Central VA. My goal isn't UVA. I'd actually like my kid to get out Virginia for college. But they are really into technology. For the people saying Wakefield sucks, is that the AP classes too?[/quote] We live in 22202 and have a sophomore at Wakefield. There are strong AP/intensified classes and they also offer the AP Capstone. Our child is a high performing/motivated student and has found a solid group of peers there. The culture is "you do you" and not as focused on status or material items as you may find elsewhere. We are very happy there. We know multiple students from Wakefield who are ar UVA, William & Mary and strong out of state schools. If you are looking for a sense of community w/o a culture of "keeping up with the Joneses" definitely consider 22202. Walkable community, easy access to public transportation and downtown DC. Please ignore the Wakefield haters. [/quote]
