Pupil Rhys Broderick highlighted what a 'magical' moment it was when the final whistle blew and the subsequent celebrations at the school.
He said: "Wrexham is literally a gigantic community of people who follow the club and events around it. Whatever happens, impact and affect everyone and it's just such a beautiful sight to see here today."
Mrs Slinn added: "The club itself has been on an amazing journey and has shown real resilience and drive. Throughout that time our community has always held onto its dreams and belief for the club.
"Our school has much in common with Wrexham AFC's journey, and we are both now celebrating and enjoying the rewards of that resilience, effort, aspiration and commitment.
"It was wonderful to see our young people celebrating this marvellous achievement and it really demonstrates what an incredible community we have."
