The teachers and principal are very involved in the students and are helpful to be there for the students when they fall behind

I guess it's fine. Don't really know what is standard or not. We just do it

Best school in the area. After having bad experience at another school my son has blossomed at this one. Everyone is friendly and worked with him on his delays and he seems to be catching up great.

Homestead Wakefield has the atmosphere of extended family. The many services that the PTA sponsors and the involvement of the teachers/staff go above and beyond expectations. Your efforts are backed by a very supportive principal. As in any program for your children, your family will get more out of it by being involved. We Iook forward the years to come as well as the friendships that we and our children continue to make. Go Wildcats!
