GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

Shawnee high school has the most diverse experience possible, having some of the best extracurriculars (band, sports, etc.) yet some of the worst dress code enforcement and student experiences I've seen or heard of.

I have had many good and bad experiences when going to Shawnee High School. My worst experiences have been including certain teachers that don't seem to care about the students. My best experiences have been with student lead events such as homecomings, football game events, and more.

Shawnee High School in Springfield Ohio is well advanced in the academic field. We have always rose above other schools in the state testing with our history and English scores. Shawnee has an amazing group of History and English teachers who are very skilled in teaching and helping others learn. For math and science, they are also very good. Overall, the school has prepared me for real life and to move on to my college life.
