Southwest Middle School - OCPS

Today we celebrated our teachers last day of school by honoring our retirees, teachers of the month, and honorable mentions with lunch hosted by Sports & Social Live in Pointe Orlando. Everyone worked hard to make it a memorable one. All of our efforts clearly paid off when together we achieved the highest proficiency rate our school has seen!Congratulations Teachers of 2025-2026 We did it!

Congratulations to Sophia Castellini on your acceptance to NeoCity Academy High School!

Being accepted into such an outstanding STEM magnet program — with an acceptance rate of only 37% — is an incredible accomplishment. Your hard work, dedication, and passion for learning have truly paid off.

We are especially excited to see you continue your studies in engineering and know that this is only the beginning of an amazing future ahead. You have represented Southwest Middle School with excellence, determination, and pride.

We are so proud of your accomplishments and look forward to all your future success.

Always remember that you will forever be a part of your Southwest Middle School family
