GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

The principal is steadfastly sure that the next year will always be better, a significant amount of kids get dropped off at cars that are filled with pot smoke. Lockdowns for guns, knives, and other violence are rather common. Too many teachers are marking time until they leave, perhaps more than the students.

Southeast high school has generally been very good for me. It's a good diverse school with great staff and some stand out teachers that I enjoyed being able to meet and get to know over the years. The community there is very nice including the students.

I wouldn't trade going to Southeast for anything. There's a somewhat negative reputation in the city, but those people don't know what they're talking about. As a Spartan, I received a great education while being part of a family.

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!
