I loved the wonderful teachers and the classes. I'm now a high school senior but when I was at Shields it was amazing. The classes were fun and the teachers are nice but stern when necessary. The children are relatively respectful and kind to one another and the teachers. The school staff were always helpful and considerate of everyone, even the children and parents.
