Six Period Day Remains in Place for Next Year

For the 2012-13 school year, Southwest High School will remain on a 6-period schedule.

Sorry for any confusion. We have been working very hard to develop a seven period day for students. The District Strategic Plan is for all high schools to be on a seven period day for the 2013-14 school year.

I know some of our students and families will be disappointed. There are numerous options that could have been part of the 7 periods. Howver, I am confident that we can maintain the excitement in programming that we also have been working to establish.

The Course Fair and pre-registration information provided to students and families remains in place. Teachers are meeting individually with students and review options for next year and the recommendations. I know those conversations will continue at home and with counselors.

Thank you for your continuing support.
