I think Southeast is a great school, my children love going there, when we had a hard time after loosing my daughter/there sister last yr. they stepped in and helped us out. The teachers there really care about the children they teach and it shows in how happy the children are when its time to go.

i have 3 children attending this school for the past 2 years and i have found that they are unorganized and don't really know what is going on with their students. They constantly lose paperwork and the communication is terrible! But i guess there are worse schools out there.

I have 2 children attending this school since K4 and I absolutely love this school. The principal is very involved and the teachers stay on top of things. Southeast Elementary School is definitely a great school!

About the tests


In 2011-2012 Pennsylvania used the Pennsylvania System of State Assessments (PSSA) to test students in grades 3 through 8 and 11 in math and reading, in grades 5, 8 and 11 in writing, and in grades 4, 8 and 11 in science. The results for reading, writing, science and math are displayed on GreatSchools profiles. The PSSA is a standards-based test, which means it measures how well students are mastering specific skills defined for each grade by the state of Pennsylvania. The goal is for all students to score at or above proficient on the test.
