Good Morning Southeast students and staff. It's Wednesday, December 13th, 2023! I’m _____________.

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

Hey Spartans, if you are ever absent or just wanting to go back to see announcements because something really cool caught your attention.

Go to the Southeast webpage, scroll down and you will see the current announcements. If you want to see older announcements, click on SEE ALL POSTS.

From there you can click on any date, and either view the video, or quickly read through the printed copy to find practice times, club announcements, or just general information. 

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.
