Good Morning Southeast students and staff, it's Word of the day Wednesday, May 3, 2023! Remember that successful Spartans ARE RESPECTFUL, they follow classroom and school wide expectations and allow for learning throughout the building.
And now for a moment of silence to start our day…Thank you.
Today’s word of the day is
Exacerbate: Making something worse, anger or incite.
The proposed factory shutdown would only exacerbate the problem of unemployment.
