Hello Summer Fun 2021 families, If you haven’t already, you should receive a letter in the mail soon with information about summer school, including locations, schedules, contact information, and transportation details. We look forward to seeing our students on Monday, July 12 at 8:45 AM to kick off our summer of fun learning! You can also visit our website www.windhamps.org for this information. Additionally, please remember that we all need to do our part to keep Windham Public Schools in the Wellness Zone. We ask that you complete our Daily COVID Health Checklists with your children, and keep them home from school if they feel sick. We expect all of our students to wear masks, and we will do our part by maintaining clean facilities. We can’t wait to see our Windham students for an exciting four weeks of Summer Fun!

Today we share great news! First, Superintendent Dr. Youngberg delivered flowers and balloons to Windham Middle School's Dawn Noheimer, who was named as the District Paraeducator of the Year for 2021-2022 after 25 years of service. This is a new distinction for Windham, but one the Connecticut State Department of Education has been celebrating for quite some time now. Dr. Youngberg then made a second visit to North Windham School's Erin Holden, as she was named Windham’s District Teacher of the Year for 2021-2022. Both of these well-deserving recipients join a group of their distinguished colleagues representing our Kindergarten-Grade 12 schools. Congratulations to Erin Holden and Dawn Noheimer, and all our educators and paraeducators of the year 2021-22! We know you will represent the district well!
