Winston is pleased to offer a spring camp experience in May 2026. This week, parents learned about the camp and what’s in store for their students if they sign up. Please check your email for messages from Mr. Weeden with more information, including the presentation, a link to join the interest list, and in January, information on how to sign up. The more students who join us on this adventure the better! 

Contact Joshua Weeden at joshua.weeden@thewinstonschool.org with any questions.

Many thanks to Emily Hester, founder of Jojo’s Creamery in Encinitas and ice cream creator extraordinaire!  Culinary students and staff found learning about Emily’s journey to an award-winning ice cream store owner inspiring, enjoyed learning how ice cream is made, and sampling her unique flavors.

Thanks again, Emily!

Helpful Tips:

FAFSA is Required for Free Tuition at Community Colleges:

• Regardless of parental income, all students must complete the FAFSA to qualify for two years of free tuition at a community college.

You May Qualify for Additional Aid:

• Filing the FAFSA takes as little as 20 minutes.
• With the increased income threshold for California's Middle-Class Scholarship, more families than ever may qualify for financial assistance.

Parent and Student Accounts Are Required:

• Both you and your student must create separate FAFSA accounts and link them using a PIN.
