the students there only care about themselves and the administration is worried about the wrong things at the wrong times.

I loved the academic rigor of Southwest and the teachers and staff who constantly pushed me. I would change the emphasis on getting involved in everything because it causes burnout.
8/26/2022
I liked the option to do a bunch of different class types. I also enjoyed the ability to take AP classess to limit the amount of workload I will have in college. The teachers were really nice and great at teaching. One of my bigger gripes is the administration and their handling of certain things. It seems clumsy and badly put together at some times and downright ill-advised in some situations. Overall, great school with a couple of quirks but nothing that would stop me from recommending it.

Southwest is a very well built school. All of the staff really cares about every single student that attends Southwest each and everyday. Southwest has a big virility of sports, clubs, and activities to get involved in. Along with only having four classes a day is amazing.GO SOUTHWEST SILVER HAWKS!!

This school is amazing! The school leadership and staff are skilled, caring, and dedicated to each and every student! I’m not certain why Southwest is only rated 3 out 10- each year Southwest students:- graduate at an approx. 92-93% rate.- outscore peers at the local, state, and national levels in B...
