Mens sana in corpore sano – a sound mind in a sound body.  This is a primary dictum of Wakefield Country Day School.  Every student, beginning in PreSchool, participates multiple times weekly in organized Physical Education Classes.

When Middle School begins, student-athletes participate as players, practicing every day on school teams, and competing in the Valley Middle School Conference.  At the Junior Varsity and Varsity level, practices are held each day, and competitive teams continue to hone their athletic skills, competing weekly at home and away, with a membership in the VIAC and VISAA athletic conferences.

With several Conference and Tournament Championships in Volleyball, Basketball, and Soccer,  our sports philosophy holds in its highest regard our principle of remaining humble in victory and gracious in defeat.

WCDS fields Girls Volleyball, Boys Soccer, Girls Basketball, Boys Basketball, Girls Soccer, Boys Flag Football, and Boys Golf teams.  WCDS is accredited by the Virginia Independent School Athletic Association and overseen by our Athletic Director.
