SCHOOL MESSAGES
South Windsor Public Schools is pleased to announce that Breakfast and Lunch meals will continue to be FREE for ALL students for the upcoming school year. One free breakfast and one free lunch are available daily for ALL students. Federal guidelines specify that free meals provided must be complete meals which are an entrée, drink and fruit/vegetable. A la carte items are still available for purchase.
 
The National Honor Society is currently inviting eligible candidates to complete the selection process. If you are a junior or senior who has a cumulative, weighted GPA of at least 3.67, you should have received a letter in the mail notifying you of your candidacy. If you do not receive a letter but think you qualify, please see Mrs. Farrell as soon as possible. All eligible students should also attend an informational meeting on Wednesday, September 8th via Google Meet. Additional selection materials will be provided at that time.
 
Seniors! Important yearbook information. Be sure to schedule your Senior Portraits as soon as possible. Also, it is recommended that you order a yearbook now - at $55, it’s the lowest price of the year. The price will continue to increase throughout the year. Check out the yearbook page for more information.
 
New this year! Select your own locker! ALL students will be able to request a specific locker - granted on a first-come, first-serve basis. Once you find a locker that you would like to use, please click the link below to complete the request form and we will remove the bolt. As soon as the bolt is removed, you may begin using it, but must use a lock. Locker Request Form: https://forms.gle/DKWpFDabKDSCK1zK6
