Meet the Head of School

And, at first glance, you think it must be the beauty of this setting that the "summit vista" view from the top of the hill is what sets this school apart.
But as you get to know the community, study its history, and meet the alumni, trustees, faculty, staff, families, and especially the students, you come to realize that the setting was chosen to match the sense of place already deeply embedded in this school - those who find their sense of belonging here choose to seek the challenge, make a difference, and live an extraordinary life.

The Wakefield Courtesies
Report
Wakefield School is conducted as a friendly and orderly community of civilized beings. We express this civility by respecting ourselves, respecting others, respecting our school, and respecting our community at large. The courtesies serve as a reminder of this attitude. We courteously greet others during the course of the day, and we respect the space and dialog of others, politely walking around them when not taking part in their conversations.
Portrait of a Graduate
Report
Our alumni graduate from Wakefield with a sense of pride for all that they have accomplished and a sense of confidence for all the challenges that they will face. No one truly understands the stress, challenges, and emotions that our Seniors go through during the college application process than our College Counselor, Mr. McDonough (and their parents).
