southeast sux and get over it unsigned edit by 
I cannot believe the school would go so far as to trying to protect its already diminished image on wikipedia. That is as low as it gets. After bad publicity in the N&O, unpopularity among students at SRMHS, and a spot on WRAL's 6-o clock news regarding Calculus 3 and the school's clear "budget crisis," the school is attempting to sweep the dust under the rug. unsigned edit by 
Wikipedia is a project of global scale. There are more than 500,000 registered users worldwide. There have been more than 26 million edits to this encyclopedia since its inception. It is not realistic to believe that administrators of Wikipedia are working in collusion with the faculty of your high school. We are applying policy only, especially with regards to the neutral point of view which the encyclopedia must maintain. Adding content such as the students being dismayed that one of the administrators of your school is not retiring is not neutral. I invite your positive, neutral and sourced contributions to the encyclopedia. If you can not do that, your changes will be reverted. This is not some conspiracy out to cover up whatever evils your high school is supposedly involved in. We are here to write an encyclopedia. --Durin 04:20, 20 October 2005 (UTC)
thread_title:  Expose Southeast  

message: The following are a list of facts that an anonymous author posted and are truly false.
Myth: "Beginning the 2004-2005 school year, the school changed it's name to Southeast Raleigh Magnet High School: Center for Leadership and Technology. The name change came with a new intiative on the part of former principal John Modest to encourage students through school activities to develop strong leadership skills. Furthermore, the institution felt the move represented an attempt to boost the school's success in academics." 
Fact: Southeast has seen a steady decline in mathematics and science programs recently; consequently, the genious administrators felt a theme change would cover up the mess. It's very absurd that such a change would be implemented when the school has the science and math infrastructure.
I think I will do a revision a day since: the tip of the iceberg.unsigned edit by 
It is rather unfortunate that the administration censors anything that it finds negative about the school; no matter how true it is.unsigned edit by 
We are not censoring negative facts, we are following wikipedia's guidelines on keeping a Neutral point of view which means that negative statements can be made only if they are backed up with facts and personal opinions are not allowed in articles, if you continue to vandalize this page you may be blocked for editing for vandalism.

thread_title:  The Article Revisited... 

message: In order to have a class at the school, there must be at least 8 people signed up to take the class.  That is the reason that we do not have a Calculus 3 class.  Now the School System should have worked out a deal with NC State to reduce or eliminate the tuition fees but they have not.  This is not JUST the school.  Mr. Modest would pay for the kids to go to state; however, it was against the wishes of the magnet board and he repeatidly had to "ask for forgiveness".  Even though I whole heartidly agree that this school is falling apart, the Calculus 3 fiasco is not fully the school's fault. teh Mephisto 17:14, 27 March 2006 (UTC)

replies: text: I'm watching him as well, NPOV rules go both ways so if he unfairly adds opinion just to flatter the school he'll be violating the rules as well, and in terms of having to get the word out, go to the newspaper, protest just keep it off Wikipedia.

text: Well he has been warned (click the history link to view the page history as he has blanked the content of the talk page several times in the past), blatantly flaunting Wikipedia's neutral point of view rules is a serious issue and as I said above even though blocks are to be avoided if possible (thus talking here rather than blocking all involved users and IP's) I have no problem blocking anyone who refuses to follow Wikipedia's rules and guidelines and that includes people on both sides of the issue.

thread_title:  support your info 

message: Concerning the following, "SRMHS is a Magent High School, which means it has seats reserved for students that have been identified as Academically Gifted." This is not what a "magnet school" refers to, a magnet school is one in which has a certain specialty, in the case of SRHS, technology. You certainly do not have to be "Academically Gifted." Unless there are any objections, I will remove that entire paragraph. 
It also contains the lines, "Such students historically do very poorly academically and bring down the quality of a school." in reference to students from the surrounding area. A comment like this has no place on Wikipedia unless it can be cited. OPaul 00:33, 16 August 2006 (UTC)
