Applications for the 2018 South Windsor Little League Baseball/Softball Scholarships are available in the Career Center. The Little League will award three $1000 scholarships to graduating seniors from the Class of 2018 who participated in the SW Little league. Deadline for submission is April 20, 2018.

As a part of the National Honor Society, we are collecting prom dresses, shoes, and accessories for those that cannot afford to buy them. We will be collecting them at the lobby of the Community Center across the street from the high school until April 7. Short or long dresses are both acceptable, please bring them on hangers. We hope you can help us with our project and help the community. 

Attention all juniors: tomorrow, Tuesday, April 3, is the required Next Generation Science Standards field test, and you should plan to arrive at school by 7:15am. Please check posters in the Lobby and outside the cafeteria to find out your testing room. Testing will start promptly at 7:25am.

Did you know SWHS has an after school Writing Center where students help other students? The Writing Center is recruiting writing tutors for 2018-2019 school year. If you are a current sophomore or junior who likes to write, likes helping others, and feels you'd make a great tutor, we'd love to hear from you. Please see your English teacher for an application. Applications will be due on Tuesday, April 17. If you have any questions, see Ms. Pieratti in Room 146 or Mrs. Howard in Room 134.

Many scholarships have upcoming deadlines.
