Let’s Celebrate!
Good work is being done here, let’s toast to that! One of the most beloved events at The Winston School is the bi-annual gala. Every two years the PTO organizes and hosts this benefit to celebrate The Winston School and raise funds to support multiple school initiatives and positively impact and enrich the student experience.
