Prior to the school's opening, students from these towns attended The Gilbert School. It has expanded several times through additions to the building. Public school students from the town of Hartland may attend a local high school of their choice, with Northwestern Regional included as an option. Students from Winchester and Winsted, Canton, and Torrington may attend Northwestern Regional if they are part of the school's agricultural education program.
