Southwest Schools and the members of the Southwest community are committed to providing services to military members, veterans, and students and families connected to our nation's military.

 “Our service members and their families make sacrifices daily on behalf of our country in order to keep us safe and protect the freedoms we enjoy as Americans,” said Dr. Katie Jenner, Indiana Secretary of Education.

Military service members and their immediate family members, who meet the minimum qualifications for job openings within the school, will be guaranteed a job interview.  Please visit our Employment Webpage for more information.

For further assistance, please contact Jessica Whitkanack, our military family liaison, at jwhitkanack@swest.k12.in.us.
