Our mission at Southeast Academy High School, is to prepare a community of proud ethical young men and women of high character and integrity for success in college and careers.
To accomplish the mission, cadets will continue to be absorbed in a demanding proven process of academic and leadership development. Most importantly we will teach cadets how to problem solve while challenging cadets’ academic growth, character and adaptability that will ultimately shape their future. Cadets are guided and inspired by teachers, staff, parents and alumni, some of whom are parents of cadets and have graduated themselves. They understand the journey families and cadets are about to embark upon. It takes an exceptional learning community to develop and inspire cadets to be academic leaders of character. I know the team at Southeast Academy is that exceptional learning community. A team committed to accomplish our mission goals, while meeting the needs of each cadet.
