A true milestone in Windward's history, the WI lead Windward's first-ever in-school research study in collaboration with Haskins Laboratories. The study partners Haskins scientists and The Windward School teachers together in moving toward individualized brain-based instructional programs.

This month, The Windward Institute celebrates the one year anniversary since its launch. The WI recognizes and commemorates its work and impact over the past year as we forge ahead to “increase childhood literacy rates by disrupting the educational status quo to save more lives.”

TWI faculty, Diane Happas & Nicole Berkowitz were instrumental in helping The Institute realize a major achievement in its first year: sharing proven research-based early literacy instructional methods and resources with educators in Jamaica, West Indies: thewindwardschool.org/the-windward-i…
