The Windsor School District was formally established in April 1921 and a schoolhouse operated in southwest corner of SW36-10-4W in the Rural Municipality of Portage la Prairie. In April 1967, the district was dissolved and the catchment area was incorporated into the White Horse Plains School Division.
Among the teachers of Windsor School were Maurice Hillman (1922-1923) and Mary Crain (1923-?).
