WINDWARD IN THEIR WORDS

“Speaking as both an employee and a parent of an alumnus, I didn’t set out to send my son to Windward, but when he was struggling to learn to read in first grade, I knew Windward was what he needed to thrive in the academic setting and beyond. If Windward offers a seat for your child, you cannot be in better hands.”

“A key part of our success is the integration of Windward’s knowledge-building curriculum, designed to help students not only to develop strong literacy skills, but also to deepen their understanding of the world around them. They gain lifelong skills to think critically, solve problems, and engage meaningfully with complex content.”

A Structured and Engaging Daily Schedule

Students start their day in homeroom, where they meet with peers, organize materials, and receive individualized support from teachers. Throughout the day, they participate in structured learning blocks focused on language arts, math, science, and social studies, with regular breaks for movement, socialization, and creativity.
