No School April 22, 2011

There is no school for students on Friday April 22, 2011.

That would be a great time to finish all those unfinished projects and assignments. This week talk to your teachers and find out what is missing from the past nine weeks. Then on Friday you will have all day to get all of that finished and complete the school year in a very positive manner.

Lots still going in for the remainder of the year. Many of our juniors and seniors will have IB and AP tests over the next seven weeks. During that time, we will administer almost 2,000 tests. Most of those tested will receive college credit for their efforts.

If your son or daughter is a current 9th or 10th grader, please make sure he/she is signed up for at least one IB and/or AP class. College tuition is expensive. Take a high school class, study and earn college credit at the same time.

Many Southwest students enter college with many credits earned in high school. This is money earned and saved.
