All students receive a college preparatory course of study. SESO strives to maintain a caring learning community that integrates rigorous academic expectations with a persistent concern for the personal growth of students. All parents and students receive eight (8) academic status reports during the year. Of these four (4) are progress reports sent in mid-quarter and four (4) are grade reports sent at the end of each of the four (4) marking periods. Parent and teacher conference days are scheduled once each semester in addition to conferences scheduled by parent or teacher initiative.
