Community Life
Inclusion and Belonging
Every school day, more than 475 students travel to Winsor from across Greater Boston to create a neighborhood on Pilgrim Road. Our students bring their whole selves to school—including their diverse talents, family backgrounds, and racial, religious, and gender identities.
Because our teachers and staff welcome students to leave no part of who they are behind, students can be themselves. They find acceptance, pass it on to their neighbors, and a community in which everyone feels like they belong.
Cultivating Connections
Students thrive in a supportive environment. We work to make everyone in our community feel valued and accepted.
“I introduce culinary techniques and flavors to young minds at Winsor, turning the cafeteria into its own classroom and celebrating cultures and heritages that represent the community.”
