My experience at Southwood Highschool has been great and very bright. Southwood Highschool allows you many different opportunities to prosper as a student and later prosper as an adult. Teachers and counselors are very open to questions and concerns of students. Organization strive to successfully acknowledge the student body concerns or wants or needs.

It was okay I had got the chance to join the dance team choir and more. I would like if they have more stuff for extra things that's non class . Like if they had a dance classes for people who would love to learn how. A drama club. A sewing class a beauty class and more for kids who pursue those type of things or even a singing studio for kids who would like to experience that or wanna pursue that as well
