SE Spartan Announcements

Good Morning Southeast students and staff. It's Thursday, December 7th, 2023! I’m _____________. 

Remember that successful Spartans ARE RESPECTFUL, they follow classroom and school wide expectations, allow for learning throughout the building, and can think critically.

And now for a moment of silence to start our day…Thank you. 

It’s Thriving Thursday!!!!

Here is a tip from our Peace Room

With final exams approaching, it is important to take care of your mental health. The days leading up to finals week, write down a plan for yourself. What days/times will you dedicate to studying? Write down at least one physical activity you will partake in throughout the week and set an alarm to make sure you are getting breaks and movement. Do not skip meals/make a balanced diet a priority this week. Keep a healthy bedtime routine. Studies show that adequate sleep improves brain functioning and can improve test results. Do not wait until the night before an exam to stay up late cramming information at the last minute. 

Do take care of yourself and plan ahead! Procrastination increases the intensity of stress and the impact on your mental health.

Good Morning Spartans! 

We talk every morning about being respectful, allowing for learning, following rules, and thinking critically every morning on announcements. 

A great way to be this kind of exemplar student is by showing respect to ALL adults in the building. So if ANY adult in the building asks you something, the way to show respect is to answer or do the request that is asked. Showing respect should be extended to ALL adults whether you know them personally or it’s the first time seeing them in the building. This means regardless if they are your current teacher, going to be an upcoming teacher,  or never your teacher the whole time you are here at Southeast, showing respect to ALL adults in the building is absolutely necessary here at Southeast High School. Thank you.
