Personally, the best part was the performing fine arts. Finding a place where I felt that I belonged. Also, the teachers. I wouldn't say I had a bad experience in general. At least not one that stuck with me. Something I would like to see change is school spirit. That has more to do with students, but I think it is really important. Another thing I would like to see change is for there to be more places where students can hang out during lunch. Just, for it to look more aesthetically pleasing.

It was a good experience because I was able to have all my classes with people that I know and with teachers that cared. From my experience, I cannot think of what is needed for a better experience.

Southeast is a very accepting school. One of the things that Southeast has is it is very diverse and is inclusive to all. Which is something you don't find at every school.

When I attended Southeast, the advanced placement program was a good fit. However, when students fall outside of the advanced placement program educational opportunities become more limited. The school itself has seen several structural improvements over the past few years, so that's an improvement....

My daughter went to Southeast and graduated with Honors. The teachers were top notch and the office staff was great.
