SUMMER SEMESTER EXAM WEEK is September 13-16. Summer session report cards will be mailed home on September 28.

STUDENTS’ SUMMER READING COMPLETE? Our English teachers are eager to see some book reports! We ask all students to read and write about a minimum of three books over the summer, and to bring their reports for the first week’s classes. If your student is not quite finished, we hope you’ll pass along this gentle reminder. Suggestions are on line at www.SouthwesternAcademy.edu.

SOCCER and GIRLS’ VOLLEYBALL are the big fall sports at Southwestern. We need boosters to come and cheer – especially for HOME games, and there are 25 home dates scheduled this fall on our soccer field and in the gym for volleyball. Some of these dates are double-headers – both soccer and volleyball teams will be playing on campus the same afternoon.

Come Follow the SUN! SPORTS SCHEDULES ARE LISTED on each month’s calendar, but can change with the weather. If you’re coming to cheer – and we hope you will – call the SPORTS INFORMATION HOTLINE to be sure of the time. Directions to “away” games are also available here, along with scores of recent matches. Call 626-799-5010, then press “6”.
