Parents or students who would like to report underage drinking can place an anonymous call to Alcohol Law Enforcement at 877 ALE-AGENT.

Attendance is taken very seriously at Wakefield High School. The staff and administration believe that there is a high correlation between attendance and achievement and that regular attendance is crucial to all students’ success. Wakefield High School will maintain accurate attendance information and will share this information with parents and students. It is extremely important for parents and students to closely monitor and document any school absences.

According to WCPSS Board Policy 6000.8, cumulative absences (excused or unexcused) above ten in a class are considered excessive and the student will receive a “FF” rather than the passing grade. Students who have more than 10 absences during a semester and receive an “FF” may appeal the failure to an “attendance committee” comprised of administrators and teachers. The decision of the committee is final, and appeals will not be accepted by the principal. We no longer offer validation.

Students will not be counted absent from school when participating in school-sponsored events or activities. To be counted present, students must be in school at least one half of the school day (2 blocks).
