Dear Windsor Community,
Tonight, Windsor High School will host Simsbury High School in our much-anticipated Homecoming football game! We are excited to welcome our students, families, alumni, and community members back to our campus to celebrate the pride, spirit, and unity that make Windsor so special.
To ensure a safe and enjoyable evening for everyone, please note the following:
No masks or face coverings will be permitted.
No bags will be allowed into the stadium.
The most exciting part of tonight’s event is our community partnership with the Windsor Police Department. We’re proud to launch our “Fill a Cruiser” Food Drive — and we’re inviting every fan to join in! Admission will be free for anyone who brings non-perishable food items to the game. Together, we can fill a police cruiser with food that Windsor High School will distribute to community members in need.
We can’t wait to see our community come together under the lights — cheering for our Warriors and supporting one another.
Thank you for your continued support,
Chris Fulton
Athletic Director
Windsor High School
Dear Windsor Families,
We are aware that the ongoing federal government shutdown may impact access to SNAP (Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program) benefits beyond October 31, 2025. We know this may create challenges for some families, and we want you to know that Windsor Public Schools is here to support you. We would like to reassure all families that there are no changes to student meal benefits as a result of the recent State SNAP benefit shutdown. All current meal benefits will remain unchanged. Students will continue to receive their school meals as usual, and eligibility for meal benefits will also continue through the normal 30-day rollover period into the next school year.
We want to emphasize that students’ access to school meals will not be affected in any way. If you have any questions, please contact the Windsor Public Schools Food Service Department.
Through the Office of Family & Community Partnerships (OFCP), we are setting up mini food banks in every school to support families who may need short-term food assistance during this time. We are asking if you can donate non-perishable food items, particularly those that our students are most likely to eat, such as:
-Cereal
-Peanut butter and jelly
-Granola bars
-Mac & cheese
-Pasta
-Canned fruit or vegetables
-Rice
-etc.
Please make sure to check expiration dates before donating.
Collection & Drop-Off:
-Elementary & Middle Schools: Family Resource Coordinators (FRCs) in each building will collect items from the front office and store them in their rooms.
-Windsor High School: Please bring donated items directly to the main office.
Please reach out to your school’s Family Resource Coordinator (FRC) or main office if your family could benefit from this support. For additional local resources, visit the town of Windsor SNAP & Food Resources! or contact the Windsor Food & Fuel Bank for more information.
As always, we remain committed to caring for our Windsor students and families. Together, we’ll get through this.
On Thursday, Oct. 30th we will come together and show support for Jamaica as a result of hurricane Melissa. Wear green, black, and yellow, and donate $1 (or more). All proceeds will go to the Red Cross.
December 23rd is officially an early release day! Please see the new calendar approved by the Board of Education by following this link.
