Announcements:

As the calendar flips over to July, we know many families begin to look ahead to August for important back-to-school information. From frequently asked questions such as ‘When are the Open House dates?’ and ‘When will I be informed of my bus route?’, to numerous annual reminders, we have you covered here in our 2024-2025 Back-to-School FAQ! 

Free and Reduced- Price Meal Applications - Apply Today!

It is that time of year again to complete a Free and Reduced-Price Meal Application! For many families, they wonder if they qualify and for some that believe they do not qualify…sometimes they are surprised that they do end up qualifying and avoid unnecessary costs and meal debt in the process. As a rule of thumb, we suggest “it does not hurt to apply!” Free and Reduced-Price  Meal Applications need to be completed annually each school year. 


Free and Reduced-Price Lunch eligibility is determined annually at the federal level using a sliding scale based upon a household’s combined income. Once a family qualifies, they receive either Free or Reduced-Price breakfast and lunch. Additionally, qualifying families are eligible for academic fee waivers for school supplies. A new application must be completed each school year in order to be eligible to qualify.

Keep your Infinite Campus Parent Portal information updated to get text, phone, and email updates!

Infinite Campus (IC) is the District’s Internet-based student information system. Important features of IC are the Parent Portal and NEW Mobile App. Through the IC tools, parents are able to access their child’s information, such as class schedules, attendance, academic reports, transportation information, coursework, and put funds in their child’s food service account online. Parents can also designate how and where they wish to receive emergency communications, attendance calls, general announcement messages, and e-mail messages from teachers, the school, and the school district. New accounts need an activation key. The district will be mailing those out in August, so save the letter if you need to create a new account.

To create an IC account, please go to:  https://www.swcsd.us/ParentPortalMobileApp.aspx

If you already have an IC account, please update your emergency contact information at:    https://www.swcsd.us/OnlineAnnualInformationUpdate.aspx
