Introduction to the 2025 Summer School Program

The 2025 Summer School Program at The Windsor School marks the 45th year of offering an accredited six-week summer school. The program provides Regents-level courses for credit advancing, enriching, and previewing to help fill possible learning gaps during the school year or in preparation for the upcoming school year.

Program Details

• The program is unique in that students have the opportunity to take one or two full-year Regents courses for credit, with approval from their current school's guidance department.
• Highly experienced and qualified N.Y. State certified teachers engage students throughout the six weeks, helping them master course content.
• Full-year courses require 90 hours of instruction, and semester-long courses require 45 hours of instruction.
• Classes meet Monday to Friday from July 7 to August 15.
• Regents exams will be available on August 19-20.

Benefits of the Summer School Program

The benefit of Windsor's summer classes is that students can take classes in the morning and have the rest of the day for other activities such as sports, volunteering, or time spent with family and friends. Students who take Windsor summer classes start the new school year with a distinct advantage of being well-prepared for more challenging classes.
