SWHS Principal's Weekly Updates for February 12

Good evening, this is Mike Hettenbach, Principal of Southwest Guilford High School with your weekly updates and reminders...

A reminder that report cards were distributed this past Thursday.  Please ask your child for their report card if you have yet to see it. If you still do not have it, feel free to call the school and ask for our guidance secretary, Ms. Sue Durant, to print you a copy. The first Interim Report of the 3rd quarter will be distributed in all of your child's classes on Thursday. Please make sure you ask them for their copy.

As a reminder, we need all visitors to always sign in at the front office when visiting the school, or with the attendance office. At no time should anyone walk directly to a classroom, the cafeteria, etc, during the instructional hours of the day. Thank you for working with us in order to provide the safest environment we can for your child.
