The Winsor School
For nearly 140 years, The Winsor School has been one of the nation’s premier independent schools for girls, preparing intellectually curious and motivated students in grades 5–12 to think critically, lead with integrity, and pursue lives of purpose. Located in Boston’s Longwood academic and medical community, Winsor combines a rigorous academic program with an enduring commitment to innovation, belonging, and the development of confident young women ready to shape the future.
Today, Winsor is entering an exciting new chapter. Under the leadership of Head of School Meredith Legg and Chief Advancement Officer Emily Gurry, the school is building on the remarkable success of its historic Winsor Leads campaign while preparing for the next era of philanthropic engagement. With more than $80 million raised toward a $100 million goal, strong alumnae participation, and significant investment in student support, faculty excellence, and endowment growth, Winsor offers an exceptional opportunity for a fundraising leader to help sustain this momentum and shape the future of girls’ education.
