Principal’s MessageWelcome to Southwest Middle School, Home of the Buccaneers! Southwest Middle School is an outstanding school that offers many excellent programs to our students, parents, and community members. I encourage you to come visit our site so you can see firsthand the high quality of our teachers, students, and programs.
Southwest Middle offers a very rigorous standards-based curriculum that is delivered by our highly qualified teachers. Our students’ performance on the State of California standardized tests has improved significantly for the past seven years, with the greatest gains being made by our Latino and socioeconomically disadvantaged students. Southwest Middle also is the only school in the Sweetwater Union High School District that is an AVID Model Demonstration School because of its exemplary AVID program that prepares our students to succeed in high school and four-year universities. Our Two-Way Bilingual Immersion Program offers the opportunity to our students to develop academic rigor and competency in Spanish and English languages as they become productive biliterate members of our society.
Southwest Middle School students receive extensive academic and extracurricular support on a daily basis through our support classes, tutoring, and a comprehensive Six-to-Six program that provides academic and extracurricular support from 6-8:00 A.M. and from 3-6:00 P.M. and is complemented by an excellent YMCA program.
Thank you for visiting our website, and feel free to contact me or any of my staff if you ever have any questions or wish to provide us with input about our school. It is a pleasure to serve the Southwest Middle School community.
