Winsor School

Great School! I love it there even though the academics are rigorous... it's an amazing environment to be in.

I go to Winsor and it is such a great school! the academics are very rigorous and challenging but still very fun and enjoyable. You get a ton of homework but make amazing lifelong friends. Coming to Winsor was one of my best decisions! It is very well known for its outstanding college matriculation as well.

I currently attend the Winsor School and I LOVE it! Everyone is so nice and the teachers are amazing! I have learned so many things that I will use throughout my life!

Winsor is a good school. There is still lot of room for imrovement.They should try to make their math dept more stonger.Also the students can be given more homework.

Winsor has a phenomenal reputation that it does not live up to in the middle school. My daughter although socially very happy hasfound the academics unstimulating and surprisingly rigid in their philospophy and teaching. I find the environment inhibitory to my daughters intellectual exploration. The academcs in the core subjects are no better than a very good public school system - Newton, Brookline, Wellesley etc. The extras like physical education, art, drama, and language are very well done and far exceed anything you would receive in a public setting. My daughter does not find the academics difficult although the sometimes rigid expectations and intolerant comments to alternate points of view can be. I understand that rigor improves in the upper school. The current administration really needs to improve the middle school dramatically.

A Winsor education is the best thing you can do for your daughter. It opens doors that even a Harvard degree could not. It opens your mind to real life learning in addition to rigorous academics. I graduated 14 years ago and I hope to send my daughter there one day. It is the best education, and more importantly, a life opportunity for any young girl.

I recently graduated from Winsor and truly adore the school. Winsor teaches students three things: the facts, how they can be spun, and how to over-analyze them. By graduation, most people have found a tolerable balance between the three.

I can't say enough good things about this school - the faculty is amazing, the students are friendly and motivated, and the curriculum challenging and rigorous. Winsor truly deserves all its accolades.

The mathematics department is average, at best. If you seek a stimulating math or science curriculum, you may be better served elsewhere. School can be clicky. They need to introduce more AP choices and allow for acceleration of highly able students to remain competitve. If you crave a small single gender school for your daughter (and this is your main criteria), this can be a good choice.
