This School’s Reviews

Southeast has more opportunities & programs than any of the other high schools; other than that, I can't really say much.

4.0 Senior

2/3/2025

I love my school, my favorite things about Southeast are the support you get from the staff, it is very easy to bond and make connections with the staff here, and the diversity at Southeast. The only issue that ever occurred at Southeast is safety, from my Freshman year to now, we have gotten medal detectors, and how safe our school feels has improved each year.

Going to Southeast has changed my life in more ways than one. Don't believe the criticism from those who haven't gone here. We show great school spirit and the teachers genuinely want to teach the kids. There are a few bad apples but isn't that true for all schools? Don't believe the hoaxs.

Southeast is a great school! It gets to much negative criticism from outsiders. I have two biracial children who excel in all their classes. And the majority of the teachers and counselor are great!!! This school serves to have a higher rating than a 2!
