Quality is Important

Just getting by is not enough. That is especially true about our personal lives and that which effect our children. Meaningful educational opportunities are critical to the full develop of a child's potential. That is true for every child and doubles when a child is struggling. Educational experiences must be meaningful, purposeful and intentional to significantly impact that child's learning.

Education is not becoming less expensive. If Southwest can continue to provide quality instructional opportunities to all its students the continuing financial support by the community remains critical. As more students enroll in advanced class and challenge themselves with harder subjects the need increases. To meet the increased enrollment in upper level courses Southwest needs over $13,000 in additional textbook costs. More hands-on experiences and more challenging classroom projects increase the operational costs. Supporting students struggling to prepare themselves for career and college demands more tutoring and smaller classes and more individual attention.
