There are seven public schools in Windsor serving 4,566 students from kindergarten to grade 12. The school district includes one early childhood center, four elementary schools, one middle school and one high school. Our student population is 46% white, 43% African-American, 7% Hispanic and 4% Asian-American.
Windsor High School is a comprehensive secondary school offering seven periods plus a 30-minute lunch period every day. Courses are offered at the following levels of instruction: high honors (including courses in the advanced placement program and seminar program for the academically gifted), honors, standard and basic. Programs in tech prep, agriscience, UCONN coop, performing arts, and math and science are also supported.
Sage Park Middle School utilizes a team approach with all of a student's "team" subjects being with the same group of teachers. Groupings in all academic subjects, with the exception of math, are heterogeneous.
Windsor elementary schools have grades 1-5. These schools generally maintain the neighborhood concept. We have diverse student bodies with children of many races, nationalities, cultural backgrounds, and income levels. Core curriculum is enhanced by programs in visual arts, music and physical education.
The Roger Wolcott Early Childhood Center is home to all kindergarten children enrolled in the Windsor Public Schools. Our Preschool and Early Learning Center programs for children with special needs are also located at Roger Wolcott. In addition to the half day program there is a full day program for five classes for the first time this year.
