Three more weeks

This year is almost a wrap. Plans for next year are in full swing. A summer Bridge program is being rolled out for next year 9th graders. Fliers will go out next week and Ms.Hooper is doing the 8th grade rounds to talk with students and teachers. That will be the week of August 16. For more information contact Ms. Hooper.

Camp 2014 - orientation for incoming 9th graders - is the next week of August 23. The day at Southwest is the 25th. Both program are in the morning with lunch as the last event. Project Success runs Camp 2014 and mailings will be right the home. There is transportation for Camp 2014 but there is not provided transportation for the Bridges program.

All 9th and 10th graders at Southwest are enrolled in the IB Middle Year Program. To support incoming 9th graders next year's program will be the introduction of the 9th grade academy. An academy is a collect of scholars and that describes the incoming 9th graders. The summer reading list and other information will be coming home soon.

We are excited about the 2010-11 school year and know you will be also. As always we are confident the the new school year will be fun and rewarding for all. We continue to inspire excellence in the arts and academics!
