A Note to the Graduating Class of 2017
Seniors,
The time has come for you to head out into the world and show your Spartan pride making us proud. You have worked hard to get to this point. The foundation has been built and now it is time for you to build the house. As you go out to build your house, please always remember everything that went into building your foundation. Some of the foundation you will miss and some of the foundation you gutted through. Regardless, that time has come to start to build on that foundation. A foundation that consists of a Mr. Oswalt research paper, a time (or 7) you left Mr. Wilson’s class shaking your head over an assessment, or finding a way to rile up Mrs. Parmer for the fun of it. You have meant so much to the Spartan community and we hate to see you go. However, we understand it is time for you to go out and make the world a better place. Thank you Class of 2017. You've made us proud.
Love always,
Your Southwestern Spartan Family

School Nurse Announcement
All medications that are not picked up by the end of the last day of school will be destroyed. No medication will be sent home with students K-8th grade. Medications can only be sent home with students in grades 9-12 if your permission to do so was indicated on the permission form that you signed when the medication was brought to school. Thank you for your help with this. If you have questions, please contact Mrs. Fiesbeck, afiesbeck@swshelby.k12.in.us, or contact the elementary or high school.
A Note from Our Food Service Director, Mrs. Elliott
The Southwestern Food Service will be launching a new computer system next year. We will have a site called EZSchoolPay where it will make applying payments to your student's meal account simple and streamlined.
The options available with our current system will still be available with EZSchoolPay. Parents will be able to deposit money on a student's account and trust that the funds will hit the meal account within 15 minutes. Parents are able to receive a notification for low balances and set up automatic deposits. Our parents will also have the option to set up joint accounts between siblings or single accounts for each. With a joint account, each student will still have their own lunch code, but will pull from the same funds.
EZSchool pay comes to us in the form of a website and an app for mobile devices. You can log on from any device handy to you and from any type of browser. Not only can a parent monitor the balance in their student's account with EZSchoolPay, they can monitor their purchases as well. If a parent would like to limit ala carte purchases, they can also do that from this site. This is a one-stop-shop for our parents.
Rest assured we will take great care in the transfer of funds from our current program to the new one. This is a simple data transfer and EZSchoolPay will handle that.
There will be details on the website and at registration to direct you to EZSchoolPay. Nothing will change for the students when they return. They will still enter in their 4 digit meal code for breakfast and lunch.
To set up your meal account on EZSchoolPay, you will need an email address and your student's 9 digit State ID number. This can be found by logging on to INOW and looking under the "demographic" section for your child.
Thank you for dining with us!

Breakfast: $0.30 Reduced
$1.50 Full Price
Lunch: $0.40 Reduced

Sports Physicals
Parents & Athletes,
Every year Renovo does a day where PHYSICALS are at a discounted price ($20-25 usually). The dates just came out for when they are going to do these physicals. If you cant make June 28th, they will accept you July 19th. I highly recommend you get a physical on these dates, it is hard to beat their prices. You will need a physical dated after April 1st, 2017 if you want to participate in sports for the 2017-2018 sports seasons.
Sports Physical Dates:
June 28th 5:30-8:30 Shelbyville schools and Southwestern
July 19th 5:30-8:30 Triton Central schools, Morristown schools, Waldron schools.
Email Mr. Brady Days, bdays@swshelby.k12.in.us, with any questions.

We would love to share your positive stories that include personal achievements of your child such as serving as a volunteer in a non-profit organization, earning awards or recognition in 4-H, earning badges in Girl Scouts, etc, and etc. You may just see your story in a future edition of "The Spartan Special" or in The Shelbyville News!
