Summary

Southeast Guilford High is a public high school in Greensboro, North Carolina, serving 1,236 students in grades 9-12. The school is part of the Guilford County Schools district, which is ranked 142 out of 242 districts in the state and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

While Southeast Guilford High has a diverse student population, the school has consistently underperformed compared to the district and state averages on end-of-course exams, particularly in subjects like Math I and Math III. The school's four-year graduation rate, around 87-92%, is also slightly lower than the state average. Additionally, Southeast Guilford High has been ranked in the bottom half of North Carolina high schools, with a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger in recent years.

Interestingly, nearby magnet and early college high schools, such as Philip J Weaver Educational Center and GC Middle College High, significantly outperform Southeast Guilford High in test scores and rankings. This disparity may be attributed to factors like socioeconomic status and funding differences, as Southeast Guilford High's per-student spending is lower than some of the higher-performing nearby schools.
