I love this school! I already had one daughter go to it and my next will enroll in the fall. The staff are wonderful and very dedicated to the children. The PTA is very involved. My daughter thrived in this learning environment. All around, this is a great school and I highly recommend!

We love this school. The professional and caring staff has always been wonderful, putting children first. Our three children have done very well, growing academically. They love attending WFE.

I am thrilled with this school! We recently moved here from MA and I was very worried about my 4th grade daughter feeling happy...but she LOVES her new teacher and all the happy, friendly staff. She has made a bunch of happy new friends and I have already joined the 'very involved & fun' group of people on the PTA. I am looking forward to making many new memories with my family at the wonderful WFES!

This is a great school. They have a wonderful Professional Staff. The teachers and the administrative staff are always looking out for what is best for the student. Wake Forest being a magnet school you can find all types of activities for your child to get involved in: Band, Dance, Art, Drama, Chorus, etc.. The parents are greatly involved. The PTA is always helping and recognizing the teachers and their hard work. Parents are also very involved in individual classrooms to help with various activities and to also just be there to help a teacher out. There is also a great deal of school pride that is seen in the teachers, students, administration, parents, and the community.
