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.

Shenango has pretty nice teachers who are always offering help when needed and work with you to achieve success. All classes are decently educational, with some needing a bit more material for learning, and it's always fun to take the next step in a chapter. The sports are pretty good too, we have nice coaches for all sports and most of our sports make playoffs each year at the least.

There are many benefits to attending Shenango High School. This school has many clubs and activites for anyone to participate in along with several sports. Along with sports, we have a new sports complex that anyone in the community can use.

I very much enjoyed my time spent at Shenango High School. When talking to my college friends about our high school experiences, I realized how quality the education was at Shenango. I would not trade my high school experience for any other.
