The Windsor-Essex Catholic District School Board oversees Catholic education in Windsor and the surrounding County of Essex, in Ontario, Canada. It provides administration to a total of 50 schools which provide classes from kindergarten to grade 12, where Catholic teachings permeate all areas of the curriculum.
The board's budget, spending and activities are directed by trustees who are elected for four-year terms, coincident with municipal elections in Ontario. Five trustees are elected to represent sections of Windsor, and four represent areas of the County. Two student trustees are also elected through by-elections of the Student Senate to represent the student body, and the clergy is also represented through a Board Chaplain.
In the 2009-2010 school year, the WECDSB administered 41 elementary schools and 9 secondary schools. The secondary schools are:
- Assumption College Catholic High School in Windsor
- Cardinal Carter Catholic High School in Leamington
- Catholic Central High School in Windsor
- F. J. Brennan Catholic High School in Windsor
- Holy Names High School in Windsor
- Saint Anne Catholic High School formerly in Tecumseh, now in Lakeshore
- Saint Joseph's Catholic High School in Windsor
- Saint Michael's Alternative Catholic High School with one campus in Essex, and two campuses in Windsor
- Saint Thomas of Villanova Catholic High School in LaSalle
