Founded in 1961, Windsor Secondary School currently has an enrollment of 861 students. In 2009, Windsor introduced a French Immersion Program. Windsor Secondary is constructed entirely out of steel and concrete and consists of five floors, along with three additional wings. It also has an artificial turf field and 'The Windsor Bubble', which is an outdoor field inside sort of white 'bubble', hence the name.
Windsor is known for its AA senior football team, The "Dukes", who have been successful in the past decade, as well as the juniors who won a AA Provincial Championship in 2008 and in 2015. They also take pride in the Curling team, which has won 3 Provincial Championships in the past 4 years. They also have multiple other strong sports teams and programs, including basketball, volleyball, ultimate frisbee, mountain biking, skiing/snowboarding, hockey, and wrestling.
The school proudly holds a Hockey Academy program, where students can build their hockey skills. This course replaces Physical Education.
In 2012, a Soccer Academy was introduced which allows students to build upon their soccer skills instead of taking the standard physical education curriculum, much like the Hockey Academy program.
