Windham-Ashland-Jewett Central School will provide the resources and environment that maximize the opportunity for each and every student to reach his or her academic, creative, and athletic potential.

Windham-Ashland-Jewett is a student focused school district with high achieving students and a dedicated staff, employing many high school teachers who are dually qualified as adjunct professors. The teacher to student ratio is 10 to 1, providing small class sizes and individualized instruction. The school is consistently improving and in 2016 moved up 12 spots to a ranking of 11th in the Capital Region for overall district performance and is ranked number 1 in College Placement by the Albany Business Review. Statewide, WAJ is consistently in the top 20% for overall academic performance, and in the top 15% for math and science performance!

The community is proud of its school and shows its support in a number of ways. The school budget consistently passes with wide community support. In 2005, the community overwhelmingly approved an $18,870,000 building renovation/addition improvement project. The project was completed on time and on budget, allowing for significant upgrades to classrooms and additions, including new classrooms, computer labs, gymnasium, and library. The positive relationship between school and community helps support our students and families both in and out of the classroom.

Teachers are actively involved in making educational decisions at the district and building level. The teacher contract encourages and rewards professional development and involvement in educational decision-making. The strengths of a small school are evident at Windham-Ashland-Jewett in which students feel supported by their peers, teachers, and the community.

WINDHAM — Windham-Ashland-Jewett school bus parking circle was transformed into Halloween Heaven, last Saturday afternoon, lined with ghosts, goblins, and a gorilla wondering how it ever wound up in the Catskills rather than the tropical forests of Africa. The event included onsite trunk-or-treaters, downtown trick-or-treaters and hundreds of all-age folks celebrating the macabre and supernatural.
