Students appreciate that they are challenged academically in an environment where
teachers take the time to get to know them personally. They also like all the opportunities
that are available to them in a big school setting including our extensive after‑school, band,
and sports programs. Parents appreciate the diverse student population and dedicated
staff, and they also value the accessibility of the administrators and teachers. Students and
families work closely with an assistant principal and guidance counselor. In addition to a
strong core curriculum, Wagner has one of the largest music programs in the city, providing
approximately 500 students with instrumental classes.
