With classes complete, the Class of 2026 capped off their Wildwood experience with a retreat to Big Bear for one last opportunity to bond as one. Fresh air, frosty mornings, final connections, and a perfect time to reflect and reset before Senior Exhibitions and graduation! Congratulations to all of you!
A hallway full of love for two people who have shaped so many within it. This week, we surprised Middle School Teacher Becca Hedgepath, who has taught at Wildwood for 24 years, and Community Programs Director Phil McFarland, who has taught and led our internship program for 23 years, with a farewell walk as they prepare to retire at the end of this school year. Their legacy isn’t just in the years—it’s in the lasting impact they’ve had on all of us—students, alumni, and colleagues. We were honored to share one final opportunity to celebrate them—filled with gratitude, cheers, and more than a few tears. Thank you for everything you’ve contributed to Wildwood over the years.

“Trash “never looked so good!

In an incredible and rare finish, both Wildwood pairs of Daphne L. ‘27/Scarlet M. A. ‘27 and Quinn S. ‘29/Sophia N. ‘29 advanced all the way to the championship match to face each other! All four have earned a well-deserved spot in the CIF Pairs Tournament. Meanwhile, our boys indoor volleyball team continues its prowess, defeating New Roads in straight sets and qualifying for CIF for the 6th year in a row! A fitting finish for seniors Taj T. ‘26, Noam L.-V. ‘26, and Luca M. ‘26 as we celebrated them on Senior Night. Congrats!
