Founded in 1999 with the goal to provide an exemplary education to students and parents through a school of choice, Southwest Schools represents a diversity of interests, cultures, talents and proficiencies coexisting under a single schoolhouse roof. Its mission is simple: to provide children and parents the choice of an exemplary education in a unique, community atmosphere that maintains impeccable standards, respects individuality and cultural diversity; and encourages students from pre-kindergarten through grade 12 to reach their true potential.
Southwest Schools was the first state charter high school in the Houston area. Since it receives funding through state and federal programs, Southwest Schools has the same level of accountability as other schools in neighboring local districts. However, by being a small public school, it is able to provide innovative programs and make improvements for students at a much faster rate than other larger or more bureaucratic school districts.
In its first year as a state-approved public charter school, Southwest Schools had 250 students. Within one semester, students from across Houston recognized the unique benefits of Southwest Schools and its enrollment doubled. Today, Southwest Schools has a high school, middle school and two elementary campuses separate from the high school. Southwest School also provides educational services to residential treatment facilities in the greater Houston area and pre-kindergarten satellite campuses.
Southwest Schools operate under open enrollment, with an academic program dedicated toward high school education, college readiness, and vocational education, and career and technology certifications. Its college prep school offers Advanced Placement courses and dual credit. Through its relationship with Genesys ITS Inc. and Datasors consulting, Southwest Schools’ students have combined their academic knowledge with practical skills in the area of career and technology programs and worked as interns for companies such as Reliant Energy, Duke Energy, and Southwestern Bell.
The school emphasizes the Texas Recommendation Plan for Graduation and integrates local credits in enrichment areas for mandatory graduation requirements. Local credits include study halls, tutorial courses, independent learning and skill-based courses.
Southwest Schools is committed to creating an outstanding learning environment resulting in skillful, knowledgeable, well-equipped citizens who will become successful members of society, enabling them to adapt to the cultural, intellectual, and social challenges in a changing world.
Southwest Schools aspires to be the leader and integral part of a consortium within a community that meets that goal. To achieve that ambition, Southwest applies its collective energies, resources and talents to all dimensions of the issues of providing high quality education to children and youth in Texas.
Southwest strives toward partnering and maintaining child-friendly academic structures that will continue to meet the evolving programs of the schools, while always focusing on the needs of children first.
Southwest Schools’ dedicated and passionate staff continues to build and establish the resources needed to educate the whole child; creates and maintains a unique, small community atmosphere that has been clinically proven to effectively educate children; expands its capacity to provide consultation on its curriculum and educational approaches that make our services more readily accessible in all parts of the community; takes appropriate risks to test new ideas and approaches on at least a pilot basis; and assures the continuity of its work by building an organization that is structured and funded to last.
Southwest Schools provides the full package of quality education, refined curricula, community leadership and unified administrative efforts. Visit one of Southwest’s five campuses today and start imagining a brighter future for your child.
Southwest Schools looks forward to serving you and your family, one lesson at a time. For more information, call 713-714-1785 or visit fill out a contact form online at www.swschools.org.
