Who We Are
SHS serves students in 6th - 12th Grade through academic opportunity coupled with athletic success, extracurricular opportunity, and career preparation.
Preparing for the Future
Hands-on professional and vocational education is a central theme to a Southwood education. We believe in providing our graduates with experiences that will help guide their future.
Athletics
The Knights have a strong tradition of athletic success. Personal development through athletics is a foundational element to a Southwood experience.
Exploring the Arts
Through art, music, and drama opportunities, Southwood students are able to develop skills and enjoy these important educational elements.
Community at the Core
Friendships and memories made together are vital to a fulfilling jr/sr high experience. The tight-knit community of SHS is a great place for students to develop meaningful relationships with their peers.
Hands-On Learning
Learning happens in many ways! Along with traditional classroom instruction, Southwood aims to educate our students through all sorts of hands-on experiences.

El Día de los Muertos, the Day of the Dead, is a Mexican holiday observed primarily on November 1st and 2nd every year in celebration of the lives of the deceased. As a part of Spanish classes at Southwood, each class is given themed projects centered around El Día de los Muertos in addition to regular class assignments leading up to the Friday of the week of the holiday, which is typically the day of class fiestas.
