Today we welcomed our graduating seniors back to where their journey began at Southwest Elementary. As they walked the halls once again, students and staff celebrated the memories, growth, and accomplishments that have led them to this exciting milestone. We are so proud of these former Southwest students and can’t wait to see all they accomplish in the future. Once a Southwest student, always part of the Southwest family!

Our amazing Kindergarteners took on Project Lead the Way, and let’s just say... the future is looking incredibly bright! 💡✨
Instead of just reading about how things work, our littlest learners used hands-on, real-world problem solving. They brainstormed, collaborated, and built some truly incredible creations together.

What an amazing night at our Culture Night! 🌎✨
Our students took us on a journey around the world as each grade level researched and represented a different country. From the vibrant traditions of Guatemala 🇬🇹, Cuba 🇨🇺, Mexico 🇲🇽, Honduras 🇭🇳, El Salvador 🇸🇻, and Colombia 🇨🇴, students worked hard to learn about the cultures, food, music, history, and traditions that make each country unique.
