The Winsor School, an independent day school in Boston for girls grades 5 through 12, serves over 450 academically promising and motivated girls. Located in the heart of Boston’s Longwood medical and academic area, the School’s impressive urban campus connects girls with the rich artistic, scientific and cultural offerings of one of the country’s most robust cities. Students represent diverse racial and ethnic backgrounds and hail from more than 50 different communities in and around the Boston area, with 25% residing in the city of Boston.

Winsor is a place where intelligence and learning are respected and girls are challenged to realize their full potential by being active participants in their own education.
