Southwood is a great school is a very rural community. The teachers want you to succeed and the internship program prepares students for future careers. There are limited AP classes but the ones that are available are second to none. The athletics are good. If you are interested in volleyball, this is the school for you. Overall, a good school in a small community.

Southwood is a very good school in a very small city in Wabash, IN. For the situation with money and all of the things that are going on in our county Southwood is good for the situation it is in.

I have been attending Southwood Jr/Sr Highschool since 7th grade, where I have learned and developed drastically. Each teacher I have studied under has taught me the curriculum efficiently. I have even developed a friendship among select teacher that make their class even more enjoyable.
