Today, our amazing 9th graders focused on cheering each other on and building each other up (literally and figuratively)! 💪
First up, they tackled the River Crossing Challenge, where they worked together to "raft" across the "river" without touching the floor and retrieve the treasure. 🏝️🏆 They learned the magic of communication, positive reinforcement, and that sometimes slow and steady wins the race! 🐢✨
Next, it was time for some engineering fun with Tower Building. Armed with paper and teamwork, they brainstormed strategies and worked together to construct the tallest towers. The key? Communication, creativity, and collaboration.
To wrap up this awesome class, they poured their positivity into letters for our wrestlers, Naomi and Domingo, celebrating their hard work and cheering them on.
Way to go, Freshmen! You're building not just towers but strong bonds and brighter futures. 🌟

Wakefield Community Schools Board Decision on 2025-2026 School Calendar
Wakefield Community Schools values the input of our staff, families, and community members in shaping the best possible educational experience for our students. After careful consideration of all implications and reviewing feedback from staff and the community, the Board has decided not to implement a four-day school week for the 2025-2026 school year. Instead, the district will continue with the traditional five-day schedule.
We sincerely appreciate everyone who took the time to provide feedback and participate in these important discussions. Your voices are invaluable in guiding decisions that impact our students and staff. We look forward to continuing our collaboration as we work to strengthen our schools and improve outcomes for all of our children.
A calendar will be proposed at the March Board meeting. One date that has been determined is Graduation for the Class of 2026. Graduation will be held on May 9th, 2026.
Thank you for your continued support of Wakefield Community Schools!
