Southeast High School was established in 1957 in order to help educate the increasing population of southeastern Wichita. Southeast's colors were originally chosen to be gold and white; however, the colors usually represented on uniforms and Southeast-related products are black and gold. Southeast's symbol and mascot is the Golden Buffalo, chosen because of the Buffalo's historical significance to the region.
