Windsor Forest High School is a public high school in the Windsor Forest section of Savannah, Georgia. Managed by the Savannah-Chatham County School Board of Education, its attendance area includes the southside Savannah neighborhoods of Windsor Forest, White Bluff, Wilshire, and Georgetown.

History

Windsor Forest High School opened in the fall of 1967. It was the city's first air-conditioned high school and included grades seven through twelve. For several years, Windsor's middle school students were drawn from the area south and west of Holland Drive, while its high school students came from a larger attendance zone that stretched to the middle of Montgomery Crossroad. In the early 1970s, court-mandated busing plans markedly changed this attendance area, bringing in minority students from midtown Savannah and reassigning some of Windsor's white students to other schools. With the large-scale integration of the southside in the 1990s, however, Windsor Forest High became a neighborhood school again. Also in the 1990s, Windsor's middle school grades were dropped and their students transferred to new middle schools elsewhere in Chatham County.
