*WIN stands for “What I need.” WIN days are times for students to rest between terms, socialize with friends, work on long-term projects, … whatever they need. Though academic classes will not meet on these days, sports teams and performing arts may have competitions, performances, practices, and rehearsals, and other art classes may have obligations as well.
