Our Specialized Programs

Elementary Programs

Windsor Unified’s elementary schools are “cluster schools.” That is, our schools are divided by grade level, rather than neighborhod or location. Mattie Washburn Elementary is preschool through 2nd grade and Brooks Elementary is 3rd through 5th grade. Cluster schools allows continuity of relationships among our students, and supports integration and belonging. Our elementary school students also enjoy visual and performing arts integrated into their classes. 

Middle School

Windsor Middle School is a “traditional” 6th through 8th grade school, providing a supportive and safe environment for tweens and teens to find their footing and plan their futures. WMS also boasts some of the best elective options, including STEM, culinary, BUILD/construction, honors classes and arts. Some of the specialized and unique classes and programs at WMS include:
