Coming in as a transfer student, it was such a welcoming environment. The teachers were always attentive and truly cared about the student's learning.

I feel that overall, Shipley is a great school for people of all backgrounds. My favorite part about the school is the community and the sense of belonging you feel when you go to Shipley. The quality of the education and facilities are also really nice. If I could change something about the school, I would like to see more academic opportunities such as AP classes.
