Why Winston?

Because you think your child’s school focuses more on what he can’t do than what he can
Because you’re fighting with your child at home over getting homework done
Because problems at school are becoming problems at home
Because the environment in your school allows for teasing and bullying
Because your child is falling behind
Because your school or your child’s teacher seems to be losing hope
Because high school graduation seems a fading dream

Winston offers hope to students and families who have experienced disappointment, frustration and failure in previous school settings.

Winston is a joyful, warm place where students can enjoy being at school, making friends, being creative, and feel the weight of failure lifted off their shoulders.
Winston is a flexible school which tries to make the classroom and curriculum fit the student, not fit the student to the classroom.
Winston expects students to significantly improve and take on increasingly greater challenges as their resilience, self-confidence and vision for their future success grows.
