Summary

Windsor Forest Elementary School in Savannah, GA, serves approximately 656 students in grades PK-5 within the Savannah-Chatham County school district, and it has been on a steady upward climb in statewide rankings over the past decade.

This is a school on the rise. Windsor Forest has improved from the 15th percentile in 2018-2019 to the 40th percentile in 2025-2026, earning 2 stars after several years at 1 star. One of the biggest bright spots is 4th grade math, where 53% of students met proficiency—that's more than 10 points above the district average and above the state average. This strength is consistent year after year, and it outperforms several nearby schools, including White Bluff Elementary School (29.2%) and Haven Elementary School (13%). The school also does exceptionally well with its African American and Hispanic students, both ranking in the 54th percentile statewide—better than the school's overall ranking. Chronic absenteeism has dropped dramatically from 24.7% to 15.8%, now better than both the district and state averages. This progress is especially notable given that about 84% of students qualify for free or reduced lunch.

There are still areas to watch. Male students rank in the 27th percentile, a significant gap compared to female students at the 51st percentile. Science remains a growth area, though 5th grade science scores (28.2%) are the best they've been in four years. Compared to nearby schools, Windsor Forest sits in the middle of the pack—ahead of Isle of Hope School, Coastal Empire Montessori Charter School, and Pulaski Elementary School, but behind Georgetown School and Jacob G. Smith Elementary School. Notably, Windsor Forest achieves these results while spending less per student ($17,051) than several peers, suggesting efficient use of resources. Overall, this is a school that has found effective strategies and continues to build momentum.
