SOUTHEAST ELEMENTARY SCHOOL

Southeast Elementary is a Title I public elementary school that is part of the Lenoir County Public Schools school district, located in Kinston, NC with about 228 students offering grade levels from Kindergarten to 5th Grade. A Title I school provides supplemental financial assistance to school districts for children from low-income families. Its purpose is to provide all children significant opportunity to receive a fair, equitable, and high-quality education. With about 27 teachers, Southeast Elementary has a student/teacher ratio of about 8:1. The national average for public schools is about 15:1. A lower student/teacher ratio is a key factor that determines how much a teacher can devote his/her time to each individual student thus improving, or reducing (in the event of a higher student/teacher ratio) the attention each student is given for their educational needs.

Southeast Elementary School, located on McDaniels Street in Kinston, North Carolina, serves as a foundational educational institution within the Lenoir County Public Schools district.

The school’s administration and staff aim to provide a safe and inclusive atmosphere where students are encouraged to achieve their personal best.
