  • The faculty and (...) of Southeast are are woefully lacking in compassion and empathy. There's no human element within this school, they're sticklers for the rules, even when the rules are not ethical, moral, or in line with upright principles.

    The policy against children defending themselves is unconstitutional and is not in line with the criminal statues, or Illinois state law.

    Many of the rules are enforced without individual concern for the children. am I missing something, isn't school supposed to be about the children?

    Obviously not!

    Many of the students have had faculty members get in their faces and invade their personal space in an aggressive, and sometimes hostile and threatening manner. This alone according to our state laws, could merit a reason for self-defense. It's wrong to put your hands on students, threaten students, and bully the students and yet, the (...) doesn't enforce the higher laws or rules! In addition it's plain that there's a selective enforcement of rules at best.

    Many parents are wondering when school officials, teachers, administrators, and other powers that be will wake up and take the higher road.

    Make education something kids want and not dread. it's a sad state of affairs. Truthfully many of the educators are only in it for the paycheck, and not for the love of educating children, although this isn't always the case.

    I hope positive change comes quickly.
