5/26/2025
Shaw high school has been a great experience, many people go here, some even foreigners, it's fun meeting new people and becoming friends with everyone here.
6/28/2023
The best was the teachers my senior year and the worse was definitely the year of Covid . The only thing I would change is trying to keep teachers .
1/28/2023
Shaw is a very negligent school. Administration does the bare minimum to protect students, and when threats arise at school, the school then decides they want to act accordingly, only to be inconsistent yet again. The academics are fine, but the communication gap between students and administration needs to be closed.

This school should be shut down at this rate. 15 minutes for lunch (which is always undercooked) i’m sick of eating soggy pizza with a fork. Teachers are inappropriate and unprofessional they don’t even know what they’re teaching or how to run a classroom. The environment at shaw is always hostile b...
12/14/2023
this school sucks so bad, heavy on racism, so many fights every part of the day, they don’t teach at all, this school is not a caring school what so ever and should get closed down.
2/12/2023
Subpar conditions. This school is unorganized. The administration is a joke. Children are constantly distracted. There are too many fights. Work is not rigorous, not even for the gifted.
