Southwest Guilford High School Principal's Message for the Week of August 22, 2016


Good evening, this is Wayne Duggins, Principal of Southwest Guilford High School.

I have just a few quick items to share with you.

One more week and we will be back in school. It is going to be a great year, so start getting excited about coming back on the August 29th. 

Tomorrow, Monday, August 22nd, we will have our annual freshmen orientation. Mr. Hettenbach wants me to remind you that all 9th graders are expected to attend the orientation from 8:30am to 12:30pm. Students should have a healthy breakfast before coming. Dress code is not being required for this day. Parent orientation starts at 6:30pm and ends at 8:00pm. Student schedules for 9th graders only will be distributed after the parent orientation.  9th grade class of 2020 shirts will be on sale right after student orientation as well as before and after parent orientation for $12.00 a piece. We hope to see you there. 

Also tomorrow, Monday, August 22nd, all 10th, 11th, and 12th grade schedules will be mailed home. We are still working this week on fixing scheduling issues in an effort to make them as accurate as possible.

We have a lot of home sporting events this week:
Monday 8/22 - Men's Soccer vs Northern Guilford
Tuesday 8/23 - Women's Tennis vs Grimsley
Wednesday 8/24 - Women's Tennis vs Southeast Guilford
Wednesday 8/24 - Women's Volleyball vs Andrews 
Friday 8/26 - Varsity Football vs Andrews

I have a quick message just for our students. We are aware that Ragsdale is our rival and that at times they have done some vandalism to our school. Apparently, someone has gone to Ragsdale this past week and defaced some of their property. I say it is us because of the green SWs painted all over the place. I do not have a problem with school spirit where we paint a rivals spirit rock or perhaps roll their school. I do have a problem with destruction of property. We are better than that and my expectation is that we rise above. Please refrain from going to other schools and vandalizing their campus. I do not want to use school funds to pay for items at other schools. I appreciate your help with this.  

Remember, you will also be able to access this message on the school website under School News and titled Weekly Updates or on Facebook and Twitter. Please follow Southwest High School at SouthwestGHS for both Twitter and Facebook. This is a great way for us to communicate and stay connected.

I hope you have a great week.

Go Cowboys
