SWHS Principal's Weekly Updates and Reminders for the week of November 26th


Good evening Southwest!

I hope each and every one of you enjoyed quality time with the ones you love. We are now roughly 5 weeks away from the 1st semester final exams. This time coming up will fly by before we know it. It is important that we are monitoring grades, attendance and making sure the students are motivated to finish strong. 

This coming Wednesday is the first interim report for the 2nd quarter. Please make sure your child brings this report home. If they do not, please reach out to your child's teachers for updates. 

The district has informed us that the one card student identification scanning process now has dates assigned. As Southwest High School is one of seven pilot schools for the district as well as the largest pilot school, the current plan is to distribute the cards this coming week. Students will be responsible for holding on to these cards and will have to pay for a replacement card if lost. The following week, we plan on training our staff and implementing the process on December 6th. More information will follow if dates change along with additional information to keep you in the loop.

As we are on the topic of safety and security, we now have the other entrance of the school on the magnetic entry door system. This means both entrances are now locked and you must buzz in to get into the school. Also - we will be implementing a new visitor system very soon. All visitors will be required to check in with the front office using the new Access411 system at all times. Once again, thank you for being patient as we implement yet another layer of safety and security in our school.
