10/3/2024
Southwest Guilford High School does not have the best reputation for a public school. I have attended two high schools and can recognize the difference between the outside community and the quality of the school. The school's quality is not great, but the community is.

I have been going to Southwest Guildford High School for 4 years. My overall experience has been amazing and I would definitely recommend any upcoming High Schooler to go to Southwest Guilford High School. I have loved all my teachers and also joined the cheerleading team. I have had awesome teachers from the moment I stepped foot into Southwest Guilford High School. I will always love and respect my teachers and my principal as well.

My overall experience at Southwest has been an amazing adventure. During my past fours years, I have grown as a strong individual being able to achieve anything that comes in my path.

The pep rallies are boring, spirit week is uneventful and mainly consists of not having to wear a collared shirt like usual, and the students aren't really involved in activities, but as a stude...

Our son being a B student who ranked in the top 10 running backs in New York State his Sophomore...
