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.

Students please listen to the following announcement.  It is about final exam exemption forms.  Students your Guidance assistant principals will be in the library with exam exemption forms December 12-13th (This Tuesday and Wednesday) during both lunch shifts.  Students need to see their assistant principal at this time in order to see if they can be exempt from any exams.  Forms will be due in the Guidance Office by Friday, December 15th (THIS FRIDAY!)
