SEA has been such a blessing to our family! This is our third year and we couldn't be happier. Both of our children have blossomed under their curriculum. Enrolling them with this school was the best decision we have made, hands down.

Southeast Academy has been a huge blessing in our lives. My son is on the autism spectrum, and though he is low on the spectrum, middle school hit hard. He sings while he works and dances in his seat while doing school now and gets amazing grades competitively. The singing in class didn't work so well in public school. This has been such a more positive and supportive education. Thank you so much for all you do. And thank you for offering Bible. It's his favorite.

Academic program is good. Teachers and Admin staff are very young and extremely rude.
They absolutely do not understand ethics and costumer service basics. If not human factor, it could be a great experience.
Endorse Southeast Academy. Endorsements should be a few sentences in length. Please include any comments on:
- Quality of academic programs, teachers, and facilities
- Availability of music, art, sports and other extracurricular activities
- Academic or athletic awards
