  • Southwest school is at work on the bullying issue. The reading level has also improved at many levels.
    Continue to build up and praise, the positive reinforcement is the best.

  • Gettin better in academics than it was a couple of years ago. it seems they had a 6-8 yr lag in their teaching kids to read. But overall about average. They really need to get the bullying under controll as well as the drugs! This school is small enough that shouldn't be a problem on campus and it is. Parents Wake up!
