Student Life

Research has shown many lifelong benefits to those who participate in extracurricular activities during their youth. These students often turn into adults who have higher success in their careers, healthier lifestyles, and become more engaged citizens. Similar studies have shown that participation in extracurricular activities is a better predictor for success in adult life than college entrance examinations or even grade point averages. 

Southwood Elementary aims to introduce students to the world of extracurriculars as we help our students begin to discover their areas of interest.
