Go for Greatness
The Winsor School has been turning curious, motivated learners into strong, purposeful women in the heart of Boston since 1886.
Why Winsor?
As the only grade 5–12 school for girls in Boston, we are experts in delivering a middle and high school education that builds girls’ competence and confidence across a rigorous curriculum.

Bravo to the Brooks Poetry speakers! The Brooks Poetry Prize competition is a storied Winsor tradition dating back to 1909 that puts students’ public speaking skills front and center. Four students from Class IV and five students from Class V are selected during their English classes to present during assembly. All of the speakers recite a poem of their own selection and the Class V students offer a reflection on how the piece speaks to them. The winners, one from Class IV and one from Class V, will be announced at the Awards Celebration in June. Read more about this year’s competition at the link in bio!
