Dear Southwest,
We are now entering our 2nd day of teacher made exams. State exams start on Tuesday. Please remember we do not release students early from any state exams. Please make prior adjustments with appointments, trips, etc.
As we approach graduation season, it has come to my attention that some of our seniors and families are selling their graduation tickets if they do not need them. That disappoints me greatly. Each and every morning as I have continued to reinforce to our student body and community "We are...Southwest!". I believe that every time I say that. However, I do not believe this behavior represents that motto. Please feel free to report anyone to me that is selling their graduation tickets as I will not issue the full 12 tickets to those graduates who plan to demonstrate this behavior. Parents will then be required to pick up the tickets they will need directly from me. If you have extra tickets, please share them with those in need. We are a family in this school and in within all the communities we serve and we need to respond accordingly by helping each other. Thank you.
Additionally, for graduates, as we are the very last school to graduate on Saturday evening, please make wise choices if you are attending any celebrations prior to. Please do not put your self in the position to not walk across the stage because of poor choices during parties attended.
As we are close to finishing this school year, anyone who is graduating or moving out of district, please consider donating your dress code clothes after your last exam. This will assist those who are in need throughout the years to come.
For rising seniors looking for a free block this upcoming school year, please complete the survey and the form found on the bookshelf outside of Mrs. Hudgens and Mrs. Richards’ office:
