Windsor Unified School District Measure J Bond
A 29-year resident says the school district's plans for the closed Windsor Creek Elementary property are 'ill-advised,' noting wildlife using the site as a corridor and confusion over whether Measure J seeks $92 million or $96 million. Some longtime neighbors are reportedly considering moving away.

Windsor's new 5-classroom preschool opened in January, funded by a $3.2 million state grant and a $5 million Lytton Band donation, filling part of a 480-slot childcare gap.

A longtime resident criticized the school board for a marathon meeting on the Windsor Creek Elementary property and for a trustee with Gallagher Company ties who stayed in the room instead of recusing, urging the council to model better conduct.
