History

Deerfield-Windsor School was founded in 1964 when eight men, led by William T. Bodenhamer, set out to establish a college preparatory school in Albany. They named their school Deerfield. The name Deerfield-Windsor School was chosen as a result of the 1978 merger of Deerfield School and Windsor Park Academy.[3]

The school was founded as a segregation academy, but now has a non-discriminatory admissions policy.[4]
