PRAISE FROM OUR PARENTS “I just need to take a quick moment and gush about how amazing Ms. Pommet is! She is so attentive to not only the kids, but the parents as well. That is the kind of awesomeness every parents dreams of in a teacher! With every BloomZ post and photo she shares, my confidence grows and my comfort with my child in school becomes greater. Thank you for having such a wonderful teacher and all she has done in even the short few days of school so far! " Windham Academy Parent "The family environment is what I have fallen in love with. We wanted our son in the school for the curriculum and the opportunity for him to be challenged and grow. The faculty and staff are top notch. They care, every teacher knows all the children. It’s wonderful how open and welcoming they have been to our son and our family. They are open to our questions as well as inviting for us to take as big of a role within the school as we want." Windham Academy Parent “We love Windham Academy! This has been such a positive experience for our son. He loves going to school and has made so much progress. The staff is caring and professional at the same time. I can't say enough about WA." Windham Academy Parent

AUDITORIUM FUNDRAISER Help Windham Academy build a stage! ​ When we opened our 2nd floor in 2020, we did so amid a pandemic and focus was placed on the immediate needs of our staff and students. Knowing we would not be able to gather in our auditorium, its completion was placed on the back burner. ​ With better days ahead and a hope of being able to gather together next year, we would love to provide our students and staff with a stage for performances, presentations, and more. ​ Gift Basket Raffle Sponsored by WA PTO Tickets = $5 each Tickets/Money Due - May. 5 ​ All winners will be drawn on May 7. ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Buy Online: Step 1: Fill out this Google form to ensure you receive your tickets Click Here for Entry Form Step 2: Pay via the Paypal Link: VIP Parking Winners: ​ Week of: 4/12-4/16: Aliyya & Safiyyah Ahad (grades 1 & 4)/Enzo Alessandro (grade 3) 4/19-4/23: Lily Casciotti (grade 2)/Tommy Klemm (grade 1) Vacation Week 5/3-5/7: Vivian Nguyen (grade 1)/Nicholas Barbosa (grade 2) 5/10-5/14: George & Adelina Peterson (grades 1 & 2)/Jamie Saulnier (grade 1) 5/17-5/21: CJ & Naya Elhamaoui (grade 1)/Avery Rice (grade 3) 5/24-5/28: Lucy & Frankie Stewart (grades K & 4)/Lucas Anderson (grade 1) 6/1-6/4: Rebecca & Jacob Fain (grades 2 & 5)/Ben Parzych (grade 1)
