Defining Excellence in Girls’ Education
Miss Mary Pickard Winsor founded The Winsor School in 1886 with one purpose: to provide an excellent education for girls in Boston. As society has changed, we have evolved to ensure we remain on the leading edge.
- Since our founding, the professional opportunities available to women have multiplied exponentially. Our faculty have long prepared students to thrive in careers, including those that were once reserved for men. Now Winsor alumnae lead in fields worldwide
- Despite radical shifts in women’s roles, women’s rights and worth are still subject to public debate at the highest levels. Winsor prepares girls to speak powerfully, rewrite the rules, and guide decision-making to make the world better.
- Winsor welcomes students who identify as female, or who were assigned female at birth and do not identify as male. While forever a girls’ school, we model inclusivity and openness, and will always be committed to knowing, valuing, and supporting students throughout their time at the school.
A Winsor education remains as vital as ever. We invite you to learn more about our history, our leadership, our community, careers at Winsor, and learning at Winsor today
