I didn't have the worst experience at South Western. Just like any school, some of the teachers are better than others. I would say I had more good teachers than bad ones. I would have loved to see more classes focused on computer programming or related subjects. The lunch quality decreased significantly post-covid, but prior it was pretty good.

South western high school has been great! The only thing I wish there were more of are varying meal options. All of the staff are phenomenal, and you can tell they care about the students.

I transferred to South Western in my Junior year of high school and was welcomed with open arms. The teachers I had engaged with the students and help us succeed. There are many activities, clubs, and events which everyone can join.
