There is a very large amount of parent involvement here at windsor school. The teachers and staff are great! The school offers alot of different programs for children with special needs and those that are gifted. The music and art programs are wonderful . The children seem to always be so happy,and alot of that has to do with the staff always being kind yet firm.

About the tests


In 2011-2012 Illinois used the Illinois Standards Achievement Test (ISAT) to test students in grades 3 through 8 in reading and math, and in grades 4 and 7 in science. The ISAT is a standards-based test, which means it measures how well students are mastering specific skills defined for each grade by the state of Illinois. The goal is for all students to score at or above the state standard.
