We’re excited to welcome you to Back-to-School Night this Tuesday evening! This is a wonderful opportunity to step inside your child’s classroom, meet their teachers, and learn more about the curriculum, classroom routines, and expectations for the year ahead.

Doors open at 6:00 PM, and teachers will host two in-person sessions to accommodate families with multiple children:

  • Session 1: 6:10–6:35 PM

  • Session 2: 6:40–7:05 PM

Our Special Education, Cultural Arts, and Resource staff will also be available throughout the evening to connect with families and answer any questions.

We look forward to connecting with you and continuing the strong start to the school year!

Free & Reduced-Price Meals – Why Apply?

Applying for Free and Reduced-Price Meals not only supports your family with access to nutritious meals—it also benefits our entire school community. Families who qualify help Windsor Farm receive important resources, and the overall percentage of eligible students directly impacts class sizes and staffing. Even if you're unsure, we encourage all families who may meet the guidelines to apply. Learn more about the benefits in this short video and check the eligibility guidelines here.

Please Note: Any Free and Reduced-Price Meal benefits your family may have had last school year will expire on September 30th. To continue receiving meal support, families must submit a new application each year. Don’t miss out—apply today to ensure uninterrupted access to meal benefits!

School Spirit Day
Let’s keep the positive energy going with a School Spirit Day on Friday, September 12! Students and staff are invited to wear our school colors (Read & Khaki) or spirit wear to show off their school pride.

It’s a fun way to wrap up the week and celebrate being part of our school family!
