Superheroes have been a part of our culture since our parent's, parents were kids. Whether in a comic book or right off the silver screen, superheroes have been inspiring and entertaining us for decades. " Dark Knight" was chosen as the theme of this yearbook because we believe that our school as a whole embodies the principles associated with being a superhero.
The first of those principles is bra er , or fearlessness. No matter hat po er or lack thereof a superhero has, e ery hero is brave. In fact a hero is someone who possess heroism. The Knights are superheroes. Whether it is standing up for others, auditioning for the pla , or being different, all of our Knights are bra e.
A person becomes a hero by doing something heroic for another person. Batman has no actual power, howe er that does not stop him from putting his life on the line to protect Gotham. Like ise the students at our school displa selflessness. Southeast has countless student created clubs and organizations • that are meant to help others, and students contribute generous! to causes the support. Southeast students trul are elfle .
More than an thing uperheroes ha e resol e or determination. Superheroe don't quit hen it get tough. Knight don't quit hen it get tough. It take determination to make it to Stat It tak determination to be in ational Honor ciet . It take d termination to be in ol ed ith multiple acti itie , and ometime it take determination to ju t ta in chool.
We are superhero all of us. We Knights, because of our bra er , selfle ness and determination are superheroes. We are Dark Knights.

We are the Knights, and there can be no doubt in an o e's mind upon walking through our school that we are proud of that. Throughout the school, there can be £ , a at least eight different Knight sculptures. T e ve all come to us at different times and throygh ifferent sources.
There's no doubt that a school mascot is always a big deal to the students and faculty alike. We spend at least seven hours daily in this school, around these reminders of what it means to be a part of our school.
Brady Brewster (11) said, "It's tradition. It represents bravery and it's unique."
Charlie Tauzin (10) agreed that it's a unique mascot. He has never heard of another high school having a knight as a mascot.
Darien Mason (9) said that the knight has been around for a while and we might as well keep it.
Think about what the Knight is to YOU as a member of our school. What does it mean to you to be a Knight? Does it make you proud? How does it feel to announce that your school mascot is the Knight when asked? And, at sports games, what does that pride feel like, pumping through you whether you are cheering on or playing for your team?
Are you a proud Southeast Knight?

Knight in shining armor One of the many knights in the commons stands guard over students as they carry on many different activities. According to the 1994 Shield the Student Council purchased this knight for the school in 1968.
Notoriety This knight is probably the most notorious. It sits on a prancing horse at the far end of the Prasch hallway and can be seen from 37th and Van Dorn Streets. Many students say this is their favorite because it looks the stongest and most courageous. It was presented to the school in 1994.
Ho,ho,ho. .In the library there's a smaller knight. The librarians and students have fun with this knight; decorating it with little knicknacks for the season.
Knight pride . Cedric Keska (9) is proud to be a Knight. "Knights are strong and represent warriors," he said.
Standing tall ... ln the D-hall stairwell stands the largest knight. For many years he was missing his spear, but during the renovation, one of the construction workers created a new one for him.
School pride "I'm proud to have the knight as a mascot because it represents strength and courage ," said Connor Randolph(12). "It's a good mascot for our school to bf.represented by."

Girls State
For many girls, going to Girls State would be an honor. With four hundred available spots in the program, Paige Murphy (12) and Hannah Schumacher (12) (pictured right) were chosen to represent our school.
"You need to have pretty good grades, and you need to be relatively active within your school or community," said Schumacher.
Girls State is a week-long event at UNL in which girls from all over Nebraska gather to "create" a state, involving activities such as dividing groups into cities, counties, and forming political parties and platforms. The girls vote their peers into positions including the governor, secretary of state, attorney general, and lieutenant governor.
"It may sound a bit boring, but it was a lot of fun. I met a lot of good friends," said Schumacher. "Plus, this event looks really great on your college transcripts."
If you're looking for something new and exciting to do during your summer, apply to Girls State. Murphy added, "I would recommend this for anyone, so definitely don't forget to apply for it." "

Varsity Rules
From the beginning of the year students and adt lts are pumped up almost every Friday to see the var s ty football team play. Varsity football is one of those spots that people look forward to every year, especially if t 1e team makes it to state.
"We made it to state this year. Even though we did 1't win, we tried our best," said Derrius Vick (12).
Jared Cooper (11) sai1, "Th e team was excited a 1td ready to win, but we were disappointed after the game. ' It was a fun exprience and we bonded together."

jV Prepares for Success
JV was the smallest team out of the four football teams at Southeast.
Collin Tussing ( 11) said," We dominated!"
During the week JV served as a punching bag for varsity and as the scout team. They only got to practice as a team once a week for a short period of time. Despite these disadvantages they still had a very strong record.
One reason why the team did so well was their coaches, David Leader and R yan Gottula.
"Everyone on - the team really respected the coaches," said Knoble.
Trey Foster (11) said, "We've got a whole bunch of ·skill. " He added that they all knew each other well.
The JV football team was very close.
Alec Knoble (11) said, " We're like a big family. When some one messes up, we pick em' right back up."

Solid Ground
He-ro: one who knows- how to hang on one minute longe-r
Reser e football knew exactly what they wanted, and they got it. The team started out the year with a punch by defeating both Lincoln Southwest and Creighton Prep. They played putting all their soul into the games and the outcome was ecstatic. Chris West (10) commented on why his role models are the Nebraska football team, "They all are dedicated to make sure the team does well, and they each put their owntime into the game."
The reserve team consisted of 46 talented sophomores. The quarterback of the team, Tyler Warener (10) stated, We all work together and having a nice, but pushy coach helped out." They had a good winning season. Next year they predict the JV team should have a fairly solid ground with many more adventures to come.
On October 7, the freshman football team beat Lincoln East, making them City Champs. This was a memorable moment for Taylor Richards (9), who has been playing football for six years . Richards got started in football by his dad, and he enjoys playing, because it's fun and competitive. Richards's sports hero is Troy Polamalu, who is the safety for the Pittsburg Steelers. "He's a beast," said Richards. Logan Beebe (9) also started playing football, because of his dad's influence. He has been playing the game since third grade. Beebe said his favorite thing about football is "the bragging rights against other high schools. " His most memorable moment was also becoming City Champs by beating Lincoln East.

Adrenaline Rush
Never underestimate the unyielding mental focus of a runner. Believe it or not, being in shape physically is only half the battle; a race is 10% physical and 90% mental.
Sam Stacy (12) said, "When times become hard, I think of Mr. Nebels' gleaming eyes telling me to go faster." Stacy has been running for two years with a personal best of 18 minutes and 48 seconds for a 5-kilometer race.
Cross country is not just running; there are many strategies used to get the fastest times possible. Daniel Casburn (9) always stands out from the other runners by wearing sunglasses that give him confidence. Confidence plays with runners' minds so much that they begin to develop prerace rituals so that confidence won't be an issue. Paul Sutter (9) said, " Before I run a race, I always rub my baby niece's head and I also eat pasta the night before with the rest of the team."
Phillip Oman (12) explained the environment around him before he runs, "It's really intense and everyone is anxious and eager to run personal records." With a motto of, "never let up, never give up," our runners have been posting personal bests every week.
"Never stop running, push through the pain," was Sawyer Smith's (10) personal strategy while running in varsity meets. Sawyer was the youngest on the team and while he said he did get some teasing, they were a very close team. They practiced six days a week with "The Legendary Coach Nebel," "according -to Steve Dosskey (12). All of the varsity members agreed on how much they respected Coach Nebel. "He is serious, intense and knows what's up," said Dosskey. He knows the strategy of the sport and always pushes them to do their best.
Dosskey, Mason Christensen (12), and LaRohn Latimer (12) all placed in the top 22 at State. But do these rock stars get nervous? Christensen said, "Before a race I feel like I have a bunch of jitters, but after it starts it goes away and there is just pure adrenaline."

Grasping "Toby," a statue missing one hand an d one foot, while aying a quick pra yer, the girls cross country team prepared for the run ahead of them. Howe er, not everyone was focusing on the race
"To get ready, I usually don't stretch, I run around snapping people with rubber bands ," said Samantha Gallegos (11).
Keeping their mind off the race was key for a few girls, who liked to make sure that the butterflies remained hidden, including Brook Benes (9).
''I'm so nervous before I run, all the other girls have to calm me down, I'm practically hysterical," said Benes, "I have to distract myself before I run, so I always go to the bathroom and try not to think about the race."
Ho wever, Megan Wright (10) had a different strategy.
" I run half of the warm up and I cut corners, cross country is hard work but everyone should do it because the team is like a family and there's no drama," said Wright.
Some girls, however, had a totally different prerace ritual, such as Taylor Johnson (12).
"I listen to Chariots of Fire and picture myself running in that race," said Johnson.
In girls cross country, experience ranged from a few years of running, to a career that started long before high school.
Brianna Dierks (9) ran all through middle chool and explained her strategy,
" I retie my shoes over and over before the race," said Dierks.

Varsity Victoli ies
Going into State, the varsit tennis team was confident kno ing they had three solid seeds going into the first day. The number two doubles team, Danny Claire (9) and Max Cuppons (10), were the first seeds, Matthew Strasburger ( 11) was the second seed in two singles and Grant Tesmer ( 12) was ~cond seed in number one singles.
Tesmer's last season as a varsity tennis player en ea in a #2 finish at State in number one singles. After a hard fought match Tesmer had lost to Creighton Prep's number one singles. With their number one doubles team out on the first, they knew every match counted toward the final amount.
"Being the senior on the team and being the solo ca tain I knew I couldn't take it lightly," said Tesmer.
Mor J han a Name
Reserve teams a often overlooked in sports because they aren't varsity or jun· r varsity, but reserve teams are just as significant. Bringing p o..u le together to accomplish something important is what spo are all about. Everyone who goes out for a sport has a differ en reason for choosing it.
Quintan Christiansen (10) said, " I picked tennis because it's easier than football and I liked watching it."
Nick Dosske y (9) said, "I wanted to keep active and tennis is fun."
The main difference between tennis and most other sports is that it's not just the team but also the individual skill of the players that affects the outcome of the game the most. A win can come down to one match and that's pressure.

In the pre-season Scheffert prepared b y hitting the gym, conditioning and by taking pitching lessons.
Before games you could find Scheffert on the field goofing around with her other teamm~tes just trying to hav some fun and trying to stay loose.

Teamwork
Scarlett Howerter (11) loves to win. She likes being able to play with the team, but most of all she loves to spike the ball right back where it came from.
One of Howerter's favorite memories was taking a set off of Marian. When she wins an important game she feels very accomplished and she knows practice paid off.
Howerter's favorite position is back row. Her sport superhero is Jordan Larsen, a Husker volleyball player. •
Junior Varsity volleyball player Kari Nelson (11) said, "I love that volleyball's a team sport and that everyone's role matters." As the team's setter, Nelson likes "setting up a kill" and looks up to Nebraska volleyball player Lauren Cook.
"Lauren Cook inspires me because she's from Lincoln, she does really well and she also is a setter like I am," said Nelson.
Newcomer Jensen Trauernict's (9) most memorable moment was getting the phone call saying she made JV. As a freshman on JV, Trauernicht said," It feels pretty good being on the team, but when I play I get nervous. I feel like there's more pressure on me •to do well since I am younger and on a higher team."
Trauernichts' favorite thing about volleyball is when you get a kill, or score a point. She also likes when the games are super close and her team wins.

There are many components that make a season great. First yo u take a coach. Then yo u add in a few players, multiply in some hard work, divide out mistakes and you are left with an unforgettable season. The coaches may be demanding, and the girls may be weird, but they used all that to their advantage. All their hard work paid off in the end. They made a perfect equation to have a memorable year.
Both teams had an unanimous vote for favorite moment of the season. Freshman team player Kaylee Felix (9) said, "When we beat Southwest because we got to beat my club team members."
The sweetest victory for the reserve team also came after beating their arch rivals Lincoln Southwest.
Ri va lries never die, they just take on new forms. Coach Kylie Pippitt of the freshman team pushes her girls to do their best. Rebecca Karst said, "She (Coach Pippitt) is really nice, she pushes us just enough, but laughs at our jokes . She still plays with us even though she's pregnant."
Coach of the reserve team Michelle Leising made a lasting impact on her team this year. Madi True( 10) spoke highly of her coach saying, "Coach Leising helps to improve us. She makes us do our best."
Leta Mumgaard (10) agreed with True while Lexi Taylor(lO) shared the harsher side of Coach Leising, " She is demanding.We practiced five days a week for two hours."
The freshmen and reserve volleyball teams played with heart and soul. The players on both teams have been playing their sport since elementary school.. This is what they love to do and where their passion lies. When they play they all have a common goal of doing their best. Win or lose they were happy just because they played well .

There's more to cheerleading than smiles and porn-porns. Cheerleading isnard work and takes away a lot of free time, but the rewards overcome the sacrifices.
"The gi ls I cheeF with make it fun and I love watching the games and perfolJllillg at the pep rallies," said Bobbie Curran (12).
The Cheerleaders go to cheer camp during the ...-- -summer. It's a time to learn new cheers, meet other squads and share ideas. During camp the squads compete with each other for spirit sticks, the herkey award and variou other competitions. It's fun, and a great bonding time for the squads.
"I love bonding with,my guad and having all my ~- friends on the same team," said Sydney Sweigard (9).
Cheerleading is a great way to meet new people and form long lasting friendships. Just like any other sportS team, the cheerleaders have practices and have to workjus as hard to make sure they're game ready. Teamwork is key. 1'.fene erson is off, the who1e routine is distorted.
Hailey Kurtze ( 0) described her team as fun,

This year was a good one for Southeast's JV asketball team, and its members felt proud to ave been a part of it.
Na-Jee Jackson, one of the team's four ophomores, has been playing basketball since he as six years old.
''I'm good at it, and I like the team tmosphere. Basketball has always been fun," he "d.
"I like being around my teammates. It creates fun environment when I'm playing in a game," "d BJ Day (9).
Apart from the friendships made, maybe the eatest thing about the game is making a lastecond basket.
"At the Cornhusker State Games a few years go I made a shot with three seconds left in the me and my team won. It felt great and it was a eat experience in the sport," Jackson said.
However, it is not these game-winning shots at the players ant to be remembered for.
Jackson said "I want people to remember ow talented I was, how I was a leader on and ff the court, and how much I love the game of kethall."
"I don't want people to remember me as a n, but instead as of the team," Day said.

High school sports create op po rtu nities for lead ers hi p. Freshman basketball team captain Hunter J ohnson (9) said, " I t was fun being responsib le and having the guys lopk up to me and be a leader,"
"Being in a game with fans cheering you on," is Nick Dosskey's (9) fa orite thing about basketball. At the age of six Dosskey became interested in basketball when he saw it on T.V. "My da d playe d wi th his friends so I anted to play too," he said.
One of Brandon Leopard's (9) most memorable m oments was wh en one of his contacts fell out. "I shot the ball anyway and I ma d e it; that was pr etty cool!" He added, " In order to be good, you have to really want it a nd work as a team."
Trenton Hay's (9) best memory was the game against So u t h wes t wh ere h e scored 13 points "It was fun, and we beat them easily."

Shooting For Perfection
The center of the court is where every basketball game begins. Many of the girls on the the junior varsity and varsity basketball teams have been playing ever since they can remember.
"I've been playing for eight years, since kindergarten," said Courtney Allen (10).
Both of the teams worked hard on and off the court, even if it was simply preparing each other mentally for the next game.
Claire Crossgrove (11) said, "The night before a game, we have a pre-game dinner to bring us together as a team."
Off of the court, the pre-game dinners helped them get away from the intensity on the basketball court and still stay focused on the game in a relaxed environment.
The varsity team shares their individual and team goals, and do a special cheer as their pre-game ritual.
"I wish we had more school support," said Taylor Boshart ( 11 ). Until the state tournament, a majority of the games had few student fans to support the team.

Although basketball in middle school was fun, the demands and competiveness of high school brought about better results.
"We used to just practice every other day for about an hour. Now we have to practice every day for about two hours," said - Christy Shuster (9). It was on a higher level physically then what the girls were used to.
"The coaches teach you more and are much more suppotive than when we were in middle school," said Soreti Tesome (9). "The - coaches actually want us to improve and they care about all of us girls the same."
Being close and getting along well helped the girls play better as a team. They had the typical team dinners, but this team also had
special rituals that helped them loosen up before a game.
"We would sing Who That Girl and Blach and Yellow really loud," said Joslyn Springer (9). Message chains and kissing the lucky pants also helped before games. "It was a great experience and I am sad it is over," Springer said.
Carly Johnson (9) started playing basketball when she was in elementary school with her friends. During the season they improved every game they played, their record was 10-5. One of Johnson's favorite moments was bonding with her team and playing • in the championship game.
Shauna Grey (10), a basketball player since 7th grade, played because her friends inspired her to join the team. Grey said, "We are doing pretty good and getting better."
Sam Garner (10) has played basketball with her friends since eighth grade. Garner said, "We were really good, and worked as a team which made it really fun."

Cleo Mullison (10) said she likes to swim. "It's good . exercise and I like that it's a team sport but it's also a individual sport."
The girls were very successful this year. Emma Magsamen (11), Lexi Lucey (10), Lilly Hinrichs (11), and Meredith Wekesser (10) won a lot for their 200-medle relays, including the Heartland Athletic Conference with a time of 1:57.89.

Shirettes
From the audience, the Shirettes may just look like an individual effort, a group of girls with no particular tie to each other besides their love for dancing . But that's not the case for this dance team.
"Our team bonds during squad nights. We go out to dinner, watch old performances, and eat lots of junk food like an entire pan of scotcharoos and oreo balls," said Chloe Worth (10). The bonding that takes place within a team can effect the overall performance of the group.
"You learn about your teammates and ho they practice," elaborated Elise Darlington (12), a co-captain of the Shirettes. "It makes dancing a lot more fun and energetic."
Considering how much time the Shirettes practice, getting to know one anoth~r wasn't too difficult. !'We spend a ton of time together, we practiced during the summer, Monday through Friday, six to eight in the morning," said Rachel Atkins (11).
But it wasn't all work and no play, according to Darlington. "It's a lot more rewarding than I thought; I imagined it being a lot more work with not as many real friendships / said Darlington.
"When you think of a dance team, you imagine girls with the same type of personality. But we're all different people, and we come together as a team," said Chloe Worth (10).

"Sou~!~ rep know!" is ilie famous line that lets the crowd know that Step Chain has arrived. Step Chain rocked Prasch every time they performed for pep rallies and basketball games.
"My favorite part about being a Step Chain member is being a part of something people look forward to at basketball games and pep rallies," said Somorah Smith (12).
Performing took a lot of practice and dedication. Being able to do moves perfectly was very important to the success of Step Chain, especially before competition.
"We normally practice three days a week, but before performances we practice five days a week," said Smith.
Many students tried out for Step Chain after noticing their incredible dance moves.
"When I was in 8th grade, I went to 8th grade night for one of the basketball gam~s and I saw their halftime performance to the song This Is Wh y I'm Hot. I liked their style and rhythmic patterns to their performance so I wanted to try out for Step Chain," said Vijay Olander (12).
Step Chain is an exciting group to be a part of according to the members of the group.
"I look foward to each performance and I enjoy everything about it," said Olander.

Reserve player Kelli Otto (10) described a normal practice. "We usually run a short Sheridan, hit back and forth with a partner, then drills or play challenge matches singles and doubles, then were done."
The tennis girls have great support from the coaches and parents. Parents bring lots of nutritious snacks to the games; they also bring blankets for the cold days.

Going in for the kill Jack Smith (12) and Nathan Wahlman (10) go o r defense to prevent a Grand Island attacker from scoring on goalie And y Larson (12). Smith was a very aggressive defender.
GOAAAL!
He shoots, he scores! It's the most intense thing to witness when someone scores a goal in soccer or football, which is how the rest of the world recognizes this sport. Boys varsity captains were Austin Stanard(l2) and Cameron Maxwell (12).
Stanard b~gan playing micro soccer in elementary school and ever since then he's been in love. "Cristiano Ronaldo is my sports hero because he's super sick and plays for my favorite team which is Real Madrid," he said. Stanard is planning on playing soccer at Nebraska Wesleyan.
Maxwell claimed, "My biggest goal for the season is to finally win a district game." A typical practice included starting off with small drills to warm up, then moving onto larger drills to practice offense versus defense, and finally ending with penalty kicks.
Girls varsity practices are generally pretty similar. "We usually start out running a little, we do some sprints," said Mia Keady (12), "then we play some possesion games and scrimmage, and we end with 'PK's' [penalty kicks]." Like Stanard, Keady also began her soccer career with micro soccer at a young age.
Where sports heroes are concerned, Cristiano Ronaldo seemed to be a favorite among soccer players this year. "He's a national and international super star, not to mention an amazing player," said Jocelyn Springer, the only freshman on the girls varsity team.
However, Keady favored the tennis stars Venus and Serena Williams, "They work hard, they're tough, and they're strong women athletes," said Keady.
But one thing the girls varsity team agreed on was their strong desire to win State.

"Starting on varsity and finishing my senior year without injury would be great," said Ryan O'Neel (11).
These goals are certainly achievable for a team that has beaten some of Nebraska's best.
"My favorite moment from the season was beating East," said O'Neel.

Soccer requires coordination, endurance, and cooperation.
Last summer both Austin Espinoza ( 10) and Tanner Cockle ( 10) got interested in soccer. Both Espinoza and Cockle were captains on the reserve boy's team. Both Cockle and Espinoza said, "We enjoy the team and work really hard, and it's fun to lead the team.,,
Some soccer players have previous experience because they played when they were young. Agustin Loyola (10) a new student who came from Argentina has played soccer since he was eight and loves it. Mauricio Garcia (9) played when he was little and was inspired by Cristiano Ronalda. Garcia said, " of my goals this season is to do a hat trick."

Paige Stanard younger so she relates to us more and she's She helps us get better by focusing on what we on." Fulk loves when her coach reminisces "abou of playing for LSE, and going to college in Minnesot playing for them."
The reserve team shared the common goal of getting better and kicking their way up to the varsity team. The girls had a great season full of wins and a few losses, but they stayed motivated with the spirit of the Knights that they are.

Babe Ruth, Drew Brees, Earl Campbell, Muhammad Ali, Tiger Woods, and Alex Gordan are super hero's in the eyes of the varsity and junior varsity baseball players.
Dylan Dragoo (11) is an outfielder on the JV team and said that Drew Brees was his super hero, "He is a role model of mine because of what he does for his community and also how he plays with passion," said Dragoo.
Behind the players is a great coaching staff. "They (the coaches) inspire us to be all that we can be and to make the best of ourselves in life, even outside of the chalked baselines," said varsity player Jack Davis ( 11 ).
JV pitcher and first baseman Mitch Elam ( 11) is inspired by coach Montana Jones. Elam said, "He is almost our age so he knows what to say to make us work harder; he also bribes us with no running or less running if we have a good game."
Practice is essential in making sure the players are game ready. A typical practice includes "jogging to get warmed up, agility, stretching, infield and outfield drills, and hitting," said Tanner Kirk (11 ). Kirk also said, "If you want more reps, you stay after to get more."
Going into the season, there is one main thing on each players mind, winning a State Championship. To outfielder Trevor Smith (12) "that's the number one goal."
Dragoo said, "Our goal every year is to win a State Championship and for me, that's the most important thing."
One of the favorite memories for the Varisty team was beating Southwest. "So far, my best memory is beating Southwest 9-1 and getting off to a good start myself as well," said Davis.
JV outfielder and pitcher Joey Gallagher (10) said that his favorite memory was "our win against orth Star, and when Mitch Elam fell when he was pitching."

Many privileges come when you become a junior at Southeast. Many juniors agreed that becoming upperclassmen opened up more opportunities and privileges that they didn't have as sophomores or freshmen. "Going out to lunch and having a better class selection is a great advantage to becoming a junior," said Blake Kennedy.
Life as an upperclassman is usually easier than being an underclassman because of more experience and knowledge of the school building and school staff. " You know the building, rules, and teachers better as a junior than as a sophomore or freshmen," said Aubrey Hall.
Junior year also brings the fear of graduating and going to college. Preparing for ACT and SAT was a common challenge during junior year. Also, being older brought along more responsibilities and more challenges.
The unfortunate part about being a junior is that high school is drawing to a cl ose. "Even though •our high school career is halfway over, we still have our senior year left, " said Lauren Hestermann.

You arrive ~at school. It's one degree below zero and your car just warmed up. You have a decision to make: A-lot or C-lot?
For Josh Whyrick, this was an easy decision. "A twenty dollar ticket is, worth not walking in the freezing cold, plus I like t6 live on the edge," said Whyrick.
"Why would you pay $20 when you could just walk two blocks?" said Jayson Layton. "Parking in C-Lot doesn't really bother me unless there's a lot of " snow.
Linda Schellpeper, campus superviser, agreed, "Students run the risk of not getting a decal as a senior, and most students can't afford to pay the fine, so it's not worth it."
But even with the consequences, many- students parked in A-lot without decals.
"Personally, I don't have enough mo net to take the chance of getting a fine, but I think it's beneficial to park in A-Lot, since they don't ticket all the time. It's too bad some seniors aren't able to find parking, though," said Elizabeth Horne.
"Parking should be first come first serve, like every other school. A-lot is only half-full most of the time," said Layton. Many students would prefer this method of parking, but changing the operation now would cause controversy. Perhaps traditions will change in years to come?

While roaming the halls of Southeast have you ever wondered who might have an interesting job? Cami Smith's job is one that most ordinary girls don't have. Smith is a cheerleading coach at Dance Express for children who want to grow up to be just like her. Smith is on a competitive cheer team at Dance Express and one day they had asked if she'd also like to coach there, whiE:h she agreed to in a heartbeat. Smith has had the job now for two years and has been with her dance team for a total of four years. Some of the typical duties of Smith's job are teaching her
students cheerleading basics such as sttmting, tumbling, and jumping.
It's everyone's dream to be able to find a job that pays you for doing something you love so much. Smith said, "I love my job. it's the best thing ever to be able to teach little kids what I enjoy doing most." She added that the most challenging part of the job is switching from coaching teams then going back to her team where she has to be coached.

Ashley Kuntz was excited when she was asked to design the divider for the juniors. "I developed my style as a freshman when I used art as an outlet." She gets most of her inspiration from her environment and old cartoons, which shows in her vintage rendition of Superman and Wonder Woman.
This isn't the first time she has designed something for someone else, during the interview she mentioned designing merchandise for some local bands. Her words of wisdom to future artists, "Proper anatomy is key."

Science: a class where you can play with explosives, use dangerous chemicals and experiment with magical magnets. Science offers students an opportunity to learn about a variety of topics from the earth to tiny cells in the human body. Students in science classes are looking forward to labs and activities that can provide a more interesting alternative then to taking notes or reading.

Adam Krug changed his career to become a chemistry teacher. Before coming to Southeast this year, he taught at Slovakia, Kansas for five years. Krug went to Bethany college in Kansas for 4 years and majored in chemistry and biology.Krug said Southeast is a great place, it reminded himtheschoolheattended and he enjoys the people he works with and the students. Krug decided to move to Lincoln, Nebraska because his wife is a graduate student at UNL.
Read Between The Lines
English is a subject that every student wonders why they have to take. All of the book reports and writing that is required to graduate frightens kids. All of the reading you have to do along with learning how to research doesn't catch most students attention. And then there is Oral Comm: speaking in front of a whole entire class and having the teacher staring at you, critiquing you on every aspect of your speech.
Foral thinks that English is THE single most important class for students to take.
"English is a very essential skill that everyone needs to succeed in life. You need it to get a job, make money, and go places in life," he said. Foral's first interest for a career was to become an attorney, but his junior year of college he decided that English was something his skills met much better.
"Speech and debate was something I was very strong in and I loved to be able to use my skills to teach kids to read and write. You first have to learn to read then you have to read to learn, and you write to express thoughts," he explained.
His favorite thing about being a part of the English department is that he gets to teach kids essential life skills. He likes being able to watch his students grow and listen to their ideas. The worst part about his job is having to do paper work. He said, "At the end of the day, becoming an English teacher is something that I will never in my life regret taking up as a profession."

Count on it Math makes money
From 2 + 2 = 4 to the quadratic equation, students never seem to get a break from math. If you have a knack for numbers, you're in luck, because daily life practically revolved around math, whether simple addition or co1!1-plicated theorems.
"Math is important because it affects all the things we do, and it's involved in the process of making everything we use," said Nick Dosskey (9). " I want to be an engineer, so I'll be using math a lot."
Other students weren't as convinced that high school math classes were necessary. "Basic math helps in everyday situations, but unless you're going to major in math, I don't think classes such as Algebra 2 or Calculus are very important," said Elise Watermeier (11 ).
''I'm indifferent when it comes to math, but since I'm going to be a computer engineer I'll be using math all the time," said Bryan Clymer (12). "My love for computers outweighs my indifference with math."
Whether you liked math or not, learning something new could be difficult, and teaching it could be even trickier. "I really appreciate Mrs. Norman, she did a great job of explaining things in new ways if you didn't understand it the first time," said W atermeier.
"I had a mentor all through middle school, so Mrs. Gay was my first math teacher. She's a really nice person, and she's very lively with her teaching," said Dosskey.
Think about taking another look at math, or maybe try a different approach, math could benefi~ you_in ways you'd never 1magme.
"Math makes money," said Clymer. "And I like money!

"One of the most challenging parts of my job is keeping up with grades," said SanchezNelson. "Also, every once in a while you get too many students that just don't want to learn; it's very rare, so you just have to work hard."
Some students just don't realize how important it is.
" It's ver y important for students to learn a language, " commented Sanchez -Nelson. "It helps you to be an educated person. Just the process of looking at languages and how other cultures work is ver y beneficial."
Students had a ariety of reasons for wanting to learn another language.
"I think taking a language is important because y ou learn about not just the language but the cultures too," said Spencer Lemon (12). " I think it ' s important to know about other cultures and how they affect ours. I also think that people are more similar than you think."
" Taking a world language class can make you a superhero because it lets you communicate with different people and understand other cultures, " said Lemon.
Chelsea Arguello (12) took Spanish 4.
" I decided to take Spanish because I'm Cuban and Columbian so m y whole famil y speaks the language , and I wanted to too. M y mom also inspired me to take the class because she is bilingual. "
One of Ar guello ' s fa orite part of the cl a i ha ing la fie ta "We get to eat food from different cultures and celebrate the Spanish holida ys ," she explained.

Marching Knights
For the 140 Marching Knights, marching band was fun and rewarding.
"You get to meet so many people before school starts," said Tram-Anh Tran(l2). "Everyone is a family."
But band take's up a lot of time and hard work: Students show up a week before school starts practicing many hours, including the first week of school.
"People don't know how much time and effort goes into making a show and how much extra time we put in on Saturdays," said Sarah Wekesser (12).
Even though band takes a lot of work, in the end it is worth the effort.
"The best moment of this year was getting off the field after the LPS performance and knowing that I hit all my spots and did every thing right after all the work we did," said Theda Schoeneberger ( 11 ).
Marching band is never dull. There are always funny moments.
Wyatt Nelson (11) said,"! remember at the East football game. We were in the middle of the ballad. Everyone started to cheer. I thought they were cheering for us, but later I found out they were cheering for the streaker."
After all the hard work; the students in band enjoyed the outcome.
Schoeneberger said,"When you go on band trips you see how far you have come. You see how serious it is. You show different states what your team stands for."

Da n-a na na na na ... Choir!
For some, choir is just a place to learn how to sing better, but the students involved in the music department agreed that their one or two periods a day of singing carry on into the rest of their high school carreer. Directors Missy Noonan, Ann Moore and Kevin Scheele emphasize the community involvement that includes performances, but that's not all.
Court choir supported a family for Christmas by buying gifts and giving money. Many of the choirs do special things around holidays. Gift exchanges and potlucks are common around Christmas, before a break and even Mardi Gras.
Singing Knights is the freshman choir. You don't have to audition to be in the choir. "It is a great starting point," said Madison Hergengrader (12). "I have always enjoyed singing and it is great to be in a class that has other people who feel the same was you do." said Avi Knecht (10), a member of Excalibur. Excalibur is a mixed concert choir.
The womens choir, Queens Court, is a large varsity choir.. The girls wear long formal dresses an ( pearls. Hergengrader said, "I like the performance ~ especially the big concerts."
Alex Rousseau ( 11) is in the Varsity Jazz Ch as well as Court Choir. "Choir is just a good break from the regular school day," he explained.
Se rvin g the community Singing Knights melts hearts with their voices. Singing Knights tries to do as many community performances as possible, but it can be difficult since there are 51 freahmen in the choir.

Let Your Voice Be Heard
Small choirs sing as one voice
In the smaller setting of the select choirs members grow very close. In Bel Conto the madrigal choir, the class period always begins with a team building question.
"Everyone in the choir is committed and wants to be there, we all work hard" said Kelsy Sell (12).
And that hard work pays off. Every year at the last concert the choir sings a beautiful rendition of Lonesome Road, which also happens to be principal Dr. Hunter-Pirtle's favorite song.
Ars Nova is the varsity jazz choir and is the only choir that uses handheld microphones.
"We perform everywhere from Kimball Hall to the smallest of livingrooms," said Sam Stacy (12)." I usually don't get nervous when performing, but depending on the crowd size and the people in the crowd, it can be a little nerve wracking." Stacy has been in choir as long as he can remember. Ever since elementary school he has been singing ane he plans to countiue his music career through college.
The swing choirs have a different vibe then the other small choirs. Not only do they have to sing, they have to dance.
Brandon Elwell (10) was member of Knight Sounds and said, "It is a lot of fun and energetic."
Collin Clare, who was a member of the varsity swing choir said, "It is a great way to meet friends; we also grow really close though the amount of performances we do."
From nursing home to office parties, the swing choirs were ready with smiles a nd dancing feet, not to mention their singing voices.

SE speech and debate is a challenge. Competitive speaking is a skill that doesn't just happen, it takes practice and determination.
However , "it is a lot of fun, " Matt Tewes (10) said.
The LSE speech coach is Tommy Bender. Bender has 17 years of experience in coaching speech.
Bender has coached many teams, but he was enthusiastic about this year's speech team.
Bender explained that the 2011 team is the largest team S It grew from
"The best part of debate is whipping up on our opponents, " said Jeremy Payne (11).
Steve Foral has been coaching debate since 1968 and has been the LSE debate coach for the past three years.
Foral said, "The biggest obstacle in improving at debate is overcoming fear."
Foral motivates his debaters by talking about what they want to accomplish and then showing them how to do it.
"I've never been more excited about a team before, we have a lot of talent!"

Pressing News
Publishing a yearbook, literary magazine, and a newspap takes a lot of hard work. You have to take the time to sit down and get the job done. You have to come in after school and do things out side of school to ensure that you get the story an pictures exactly right.
Editor of the Clarion, Dawn Hoffman (12) said, "G the final product takes a series of steps."
The Clarion came out once a month and was in t second successful year of having an online version. The o version was updated regularly.
Hoffman said, "My overall goal of the newspaper is to make it better and to get more people interested.
Clarion adviser Judy Hanika said, "It is rewarding seeing students become better writers and progressing into a journalistic point of view."
Another class taught by Hanika is photo journalism where students have the chance to freelance with their own photography and also learn about different principles of photography. At the end of the semester students create two pages in the yearbook format to get a feel for what yearbook class could be like.
Kate Cole (12) said, "I have always liked taking pictures, so this class was a good fit for me."
Yearbook class produces the SHIELD. Containing everything from the small things to the big things, a year's worth of school and events are captured in over 200 pages.
Editor Collin Humphrey (11) said, " It's like this: I always see the yearbook and say 'oh I'd change that.' Now I have the ability to make the changes."
In advanced creative writing, students create From the Depths, a magazine of student writing and art work printed in black and white.
Marilyn Marr (9) said, "I took this class because it is more fun than an English class."

What would we do wit
Many things must happen day and night in order for a school to run as cleanly and efficiently as possible. Have you ever thought of exactly what school would be like if there wasn't any security, custodians or lunch ladies? It'd be one dangerous/ filthy/hungry mess.
Barb Sandusky is one of our lunch lady heros. She has served 21 years in the LPS cafeteria business with 18 of those being here at Southeast. Sandusky said, "My favorite part of the job is being able to work with such a great staff. We have a lot of fun and I also really enjoy the interaction with the kids."
Sandusky is food service manager of the lunch staff. Sandusky chose to become a lunch lady because she said it was a great mom's job. "I started when I had little kids, and when you can have all the days off that they are off, plus the summers, it's a real benefit. In the food service industry, it is very unusual to have a job with no evenings, weekends and holidays," she said.
The hardest part of her job Sandusky says is putting away the groceries since they get about three deliveries a week and each delivery brings from 50-100 cases of food. Before working here Sandusky was a supervisor at the Pawnee County Memorial hospital Cafeteria in Pawnee City, NE for ten years before she and her family moved to Lincoln.
Luis Moreno is the head hero of the custodial staff. You can find Moreno after lunch helping sweep the floor, wiping down tables, and stacking chairs. Moreno gives out daily tasks to his staff at the beginning of their shift, and critiques them on their work from the day before.

Fitness is key to a long and healthy life. That's why physical education credits are essential to graduating. The re are a variety of classes you can take to earn your gym cre dits.
"I decided to take weight training to stay in shap e and get ready for baseball season," said Easton Allgood (9).
Students in weight training mainly worked out in the weight room, but Wednesdays were "game days" where the students got to play a game like kickball. Students enjoyed the combination.
"My favorite parts of weight training are maxing out on the bench press and [playing] dodgeball," said Josh Lynn (11 ).
Another physical education class option is toning and fitness, this class combines exercises from cardio to pool workouts. Emily Doolittle ( 12), who took the class explained the basic routine of each class.
"A typical class starts with a warm-up and stretching. Then we do different things throughout the week, like weights, cardio, exercise in the pool, or learn a new form of exercise," said Doolittle.
Students realize that physical education class is important to take, not only to earn graduation credits; but also to stay healthy.
"I enjoy working out; because it releases endorphins," said Lynn.
When endorphins are released, it helps to control stress levels an d improves concentration. This is one example of how ta king a gym class and working out help students do better in other courses.

Where would we be without the faculty and stalt'. this school? There are 230 employees at Southeast - alJ<,l; them superheroes in some way, shape, or form.
The teachers are the people we see every day, soin a way that makes them the Supermen or Wonderwomen of our 'Justice League.' Then there are the office staff, th.e nurses, the administrators, and counselors who make up th backbone of the 'league.' They make sure things get done in the school that need to get done, just like in the Justice League, not everything gets done by the face, most of it gets done by the support team.
When everyone works together, the "big things" get d<?ne. Without everyone working together as a team, goals would not be accomplished in either the world of Superheroes, or the world of Southeast and the "evil forces" would take over.
With a school full of individual heroes coming together, great things happen. Here are the faces of the Southeast Justice League.

Fresh start
Going from middle school to high school is a big change for most freshmen. The transition is also a great fresh start for many students. It gives people the opportunity to experience a new life in a new school.
In the lunchroom we met a few freshmen that were willing to say how it feels to be a freshmen.
Nolan Berk said,"We can chew gum, use iPods and cell phones unlike middle school,"
Many freshmen expect to experience new things in high school. Some include playing high school sports or succeeding academically.
"I hope to make varsity basketball and meet a lot of new people," said Benjamin Johnston.
Many freshmen are pleasantly surprised by the freedom and new people they experience in high school. Luckily for them, they still have three more years of high school experiences.

Freshman Year Myth vs. Fact
Taking your first steps into h school is always scar y . It is a ce of 1Jncertainty and there tends e some misconceptions about freshman year experience. perclassmen create false stories ant to scare them. Or are they?
"I heard about Freshmen day," said Brandon Klein. "But uickly found out that that wasn't " e.
"I heard that the upperclassn would gang-up on the freshn and put then in a trashcan," alled Mikaela Cauble.
This is a scary thought. Luckthat is completely false. People t trash not, freshmen, into trashs.
Cauble shared the most common myth, "I heard that you might be locked in your locker. " •
Bad news that actuall y does happen. Some people think that lockers can ' t fit a freshman. They can. It isn't likely to happen, but it's not unheard of.
"Just the other day the wrestling team threw a freshman teammate into one of the lockers," bragged Taylor Whitson (11).
The first year isn ' t so bad. Most freshmen didn't let ridiculous myths ruin a good time. They even found that they could call Southeast their new home away from home.

Call the Deli?
Being the new kids in school isn't alwa s easy, especially for the "freshmeat" or freshmen of the school. In the movies, freshmen ha e always been showed being dumped in garbage cans, stuffed into lockers, or beaten up in the bathroom.
Seniors and fre hmen might not be the best of friends, but the are ure not the cat and mouse persona that mo ies portray them to be.
Lukas Jilg said," Seniors ha e been prett nice, like Ste e Dosske "
Other freshmen have different reasons for the ne relationship between the seniors and freshmen.
Breana Wilson said, "The seniors weren't scary because I have older relatives at this school."
It may be that the just get along or that the ha e older relative , but one thing i for ure, fre hman are no longer con idered fre hmeat, or the ne punching bag in school.

Finding a Ride
There is nothing better than taking a seat in your car, hearing the roar of the engine, turning the speaker up to max, and cruising down the road. Oh wait, yeah there is! Actually being able to drive would be much better.
The majority of students drive themselves to school. However others, like freshman, can't. Since most of our freshmen are a mix of fourteen and fifteen year-olds, they lack an important requirement for driving: a drivers license. So how did they get from place to place?
"My mom takes me to school as well as to my friends' house ," commented Alexander Mohr. "It's good to have older friends to drive you around,continued Mohr. "We listen to music too loudl and once we started to swerve and almost hit a tree." 206 People
around. We listen to music too loudly and once we started to swerve and almost hit a tree."
"My older brother gives me a ride most often," said Leah MacDonald, "but the hardest part is when he's busy."
Most of the freshman could rely on their family members for rides. Some like Laura Green were lucky enough to have a friend be their ride.
Finding a ride was nothing new to them. They have been chauffeured around their whole lives. But now they are all the more eager to bec;:ome the drivers themsel es.

"Drawing is like writing for me," wise words from the freshman Nick Morse. He was asked to draw the divider page for the freshmen and needless to say he was nervous.
"I was excited, but scared because everyone would see it and I have never drawn comic book characters before," he explained. Even without much practice, he did a wonderful job.
Yet another artist who has been doing this forever, Morse became more interested in art during elementary school. He would take drawing assignments over writing ones.
"I don't really have any inspiration. I guess just making a picture inspires rile," he said. Morse draws because it's relaxing, and because he is confident in his work.
His advice to future artists: "Just practice and draw what you love!"

High school students have money, earn money, or want more money. They spend their money on food, technology, clothes, entertainment or gas for their car. They give up necessities like clothes to buy technology.
Silly bands, feather hairpieces, and the latest designer jeans inspire teens to pull out their wallets and spend money on things they don't really need.
These advertisers hope you pull out your wallet and spend money to buy their products and we thank them for their support of the SHIELD.
