Seem too concerned with political correctness than academics. Open fights in the hallways at times, though not as bad as many of the other high schools in Lincoln. Seem very pro diversity and social emotional learning, but with more attention for these than academics.

Great experience I would recommend. Great teachers, good and supportive community and overall just a positive environment. They do a week of honoring and knowledgeable about prevention of suicide and mental health week.

Southwest is a very well built school. All of the staff really cares about every single student that attends Southwest each and everyday.
