When an opening happens at Southeast we move fast to fill it. If you would like to work at the school then consider getting your application on file so you can be considered for any future openings.

Substitutes are always needed for every department including kitchen, custodial, and classroom. Openings in all departments happen unexpectedly.

We have a large number of our staff who coach or have kids in activities. This can create an issue covering classes at the end of the school day as these teachers try to make the games. If you are willing and able to cover an hour or two at the end of the school day it would be very helpful. We always need more full day subs, but you are not up for covering a class for a full day, consider signing up for these partial times. Cover a class for an hour then you are already at school to pick up your own kids when the bell rings. Contact Kelsey at the district office if you can help.

Southeast of Saline has experienced confirmed positives cases in the JH and HS this week. We ask that everyone stay vigilant with following protocols and protecting yourself against the spread. Masks remain recommended at the high school. Due to continued positive cases in the Junior High this week, Southeast of Saline is extending the masking requirement for 7th and 8th grade through next week. This measure is meant to control the spread of known cases. We have had confirmed positive cases in the JH this week up to and including today. Please monitor symptoms and exercise precautions as we have known exposures. A covid tracker has been posted on the district website under the Covid-19 page.
