The Schools Serving Windsor Woods
Windsor Woods Elementary School sits within the neighborhood itself and carries a GreatSchools rating of 8 out of 10 [5](https://www.greatschools.org/virginia/virginia-beach/1799-Windsor-Woods-Elementary-School/). Depending on the exact street, some Windsor Woods homes are zoned to nearby Windsor Oaks (GreatSchools rating of 5 out of 10) [6](https://www.greatschools.org/virginia/virginia-beach/1798-Windsor-Oaks-Elementary-School/) or White Oaks (GreatSchools rating of 6 out of 10) [7](https://www.greatschools.org/virginia/virginia-beach/1796-White-Oaks-Elementary-School/) elementary schools instead, and middle school students generally attend Independence Middle School (GreatSchools rating of 6 out of 10) [8](https://www.greatschools.org/virginia/virginia-beach/1764-Independence-Middle-School/), with high schoolers zoned to either Princess Anne High School (GreatSchools rating of 8 out of 10) [9](https://www.greatschools.org/virginia/virginia-beach/1734-Princess-Anne-High-School/) or Green Run High School (GreatSchools rating of 5 out of 10) [10](https://www.greatschools.org/virginia/virginia-beach/1801-Green-Run-High-School/) depending on the address [4](https://www.beachhomesbybart.com/neighborhood-profile-windsor-woods-virginia-beach-virginia-23452).
Because attendance boundaries can differ block by block in this part of Virginia Beach, and can change from year to year, always confirm zoning for a specific address using Virginia Beach City Public Schools' school locator before making an offer.
What Families Should Know
This part of Virginia Beach has several elementary options within a short drive of one another, which is useful if you're comparing homes across Windsor Woods, Windsor Oaks or nearby streets. I recommend touring schools in person when possible, since ratings and test scores only tell part of the story about class size, programs and day-to-day culture.
Ratings vary quite a bit across these nearby options, from Windsor Woods Elementary's 8 out of 10 down to Windsor Oaks' 5 out of 10, so I recommend touring in person, since ratings and test scores only tell part of the story about class size, programs and day-to-day culture.
