Winters Mill High School is part of the Carroll County Public School System (double-click to access CCPS website). It is a comprehensive high school in the Westminster area, that opened in August, 2002. Located on Gorsuch Road, it serves the north central community of Carroll County. It has a functional capacity of 1200 students. Winters Mill started the first year with ninth and tenth grade students only. Each succeeding year one grade was added and full capacity was reached during the 2004–2005 school year.
Winters Mill is an academy school. An academy is an organizational tool which helps create a smaller learning environment for students. Academies increase relevance and rigor of the curriculum by focusing on career interests of students. Students will have an individual academic advisor to assist them in meeting the challenging course of study. The mascot is the falcon, and the school colors are burgundy, white, and silver.
There is a wonderful website available to help parents maneuver through the various websites that are popular with children.
