School Reviews

My son took Algebra 1 this summer (2024) at Windsor. He had previously gone to a catholic school on Long Island, where the curriculum was shockingly behind. When he started 8th-grade math in Port Washington, we were told he wasn't ready for Algebra 1 (he had been high honors in "accelerated math" at the other private school). We wanted to get him back on track for 9th grade and our district advised us that this was the only fully accredited NYS Algebra class they were aware of. I tried to find something closer, but there was nothing (except a sketchy academy in Nassau that wanted 4x the price and sounded like you were paying them off for the credit). The course was 6 intense weeks, and a bit of a drive, but completely worth it. Mr. Villafana is a great math teacher. My son got a 100 on the regents. Well worth the time and the money. Now we are back on track in our district and I'm grateful to have been directed to Windsor school this summer.

The child attended a Summer Math Course for enrichment during the summer of 2022. The teacher was very engaged, well prepared, and very nice. The facilities are good, the class size was great and the school is easily accessible by mass transit. Will be returning next summer.

The Windsor School is an excellent place for students to learn not just the academics, but make some great connections, participate in outstanding extracurricular activities and clubs as well as get excellent college preparation guidance. The staff and teachers are very friendly and always willing to help. The class atmosphere is very welcoming and the instructors do a great job of ensuring their students understand the course materials.

I wanted to get ahead in math by taking Algebra 2 over the summer, I've had a great experience with Windsor and their summer Algebra 2 math course. The teacher and staff are very kind and excellent at their job; the course was well organized and seems well planned ahead of time. The courses provided make sure you understand the material given; the teacher will be happy to offer any time and materials needed to help you to succeed in the course.

This year my son graduated the Windsor School where he was a student since the 7th grade! We were fortunate to find this school because it is different from other schools in most advantageous ways. The school is safe, clean and well maintained. Each student gets personal attention from a teacher because of the small class sizes. The teachers are professional and dedicated to their work. The principal and administrative staff are very attentive and responsive to the students and parents alike. As a parent, I am very pleased with our experience with the Windsor School and would recommend this institution to all who wants a good education and appropriate environment.

My experience with my child going to this school has been amazing. To see my child looking forward to going to school learning and eager to hand in assignments on time. To be able to really learn and focus on her most challenging subject in math. Not only the teachers are amazing, great principal and guidance counselor and staff. School is so clean. I couldn't be happier with this great opportunity that this school has given my daughter to attend at Windsor, I would tell anyone that is willing to learn and respect and willing to learn this is the school. Thank you to all staff.

Windsor school is a small but cozy family like. Its smaller size class enables an individual student to get more attentions and interactions with teachers. "You don't have a second to be distracted in the class......", my son told me. The principal teachers and staffs are all very kind and always ready to help. Students are respected and cared about. My son has become more confident than before and has made some academic improvements during the study in Windsor school. This is a nice school that really suits us.

Excellent school for students who wish to achieve their goals. Everyone from the Principal to the teachers and the administrative staff is very helpful. I am happy my child attended the Geometry during the summer of 2019 and thankful to each one there for making it a success.
5 8/21/2019
The staff is extremely friendly. Students feel welcomed in this school. There is a large diversity within the students. The tuition is worth it. I highly recommend this school for kids who are trying to exceed and go to college. The education is wonderful.

We wanted to accelerate in Algebra 1 and we had a very good experience doing it from Windsor school. It is a very organized top-notch school and since we were coming from Long Island, it`s close vicinity to LIRR helped a lot and made things easy!
