Southwest Guilford High School Principal's Message for the Week of September 5, 2016

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

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

This first week back was hot and I am sure a little tiring for some. I have been very impressed with this staff and the behavior of our students so far. Keep up the great work!  

Tomorrow, Monday, September 5th, is the Labor Day Holiday. There will be no school for students and staff.  I hope you are able to spend quality time with friends and family. 

Tuesday, September 6th, we will host our annual open house for all grades from 6:30 to 8:00 p.m. We will begin with a brief meeting in the auditorium before we ring the bells and allow you to walk your child's schedule. I hope to see you all there. 

We have a lot of home sporting events this week:
Tuesday 9/6 - Men's Soccer vs Western Guilford
Tuesday 9/6 - Women's Tennis vs Glenn
Wednesday 9/7 - Women's Golf vs Page 
Wednesday 9/7 - Women's Volleyball vs Eastern Guilford
Thursday 9/8 - Women's Golf vs Grimsley
Thursday 9/8 - JV Football vs Western Guilford
Friday 9/9 - Varsity Football @ Western Guilford

Parents, I know that many of you have signed a schedule change form for your child to come out of certain classes. The schedule change form is for students that had a hole in their schedule or did not get what the registered for during the spring of last year. We are not going to change classes for lunch preferences, to be with friends, or make changes that further overload our already crowded courses. I appreciate your understanding as we continue to balance our school schedule. 

Also, starting Tuesday, Sept 6th, students will be able to bring water to their classes to drink. We are not, however, going to allow any other types of drinks or food to be consumed in the classrooms. This is in an effort to help our students stay hydrated throughout the school day. 

Remember, you are able to access this message on our school website under School News and titled Principal's 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
