Reaching
New Peaks

Our academic and athletic success is at an all-time high, and these combined achievements are terrific news.

Yet, as our community and student population increase in size and requirements, the WSS must keep pace to provide the best education for our hard-working and talented student-athletes. Even with our impressive athletic results, our ultimate goal is to provide balance and support to our students and help ensure future success beyond high school and in life. That is why Winter Sports School seeks to “reach new peaks” with an exciting school expansion. Beginning in the fall of 2023, the school will embark on a new building project, adding much-needed space and facilities to our campus.

Our expansion campaign goal is $3.3 MM. Whether you are a current Winter Sports School family, alumni, faculty, or community member, we ask that you consider a donation to “Reaching New Peaks.” Your support at any level will directly impact future student-athletes and the continued legacy of the Winter Sports School.

With your help, they will remain competitors for life.

Benefits for
Student Learning

Reduced Class Sizes

Smaller class sizes give students more opportunity to share their voices and receive more individual feedback on their work.

More Full-Time Faculty

Having multiple teachers in each subject area will also allow for increased collegiality and lesson-plan sharing to enhance instruction and ensure best practices within the discipline.

Enhanced Instructional Excellence

With two sections of each course, teachers will be able to focus on fewer preparations each day to create even more engaging, rigorous learning activities, and improve their instructional practice.

Honors Sections in Core Courses

The present model at WSS requires students of mixed ability levels to be in the same class, which does have some benefits, but ultimately limits how much the high-achieving students can accomplish in a school year.

More Flexible Social Groupings

The constant ability to mix and match students between two sections would keep classes fluid and dynamic, which ultimately would enrich the students’ academic and social experience.

AUDITORIUM GATHERING SPACE

A spacious and high-tech auditorium will allow for our entire school to gather for community-building events and special presentations.
