As a graduate of Southwest High School, I felt that the school did an excellent job of preparing me for college through its higher-level courses. The block schedule also helped me feel prepared for college life, and my interactions with the teachers were always positive. I also appreciated that there are many opportunities for students with disabilities to connect with other students and feel involved.
