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.

The way the school is set up is super helpful when students are getting ready for college. There is a lot of diversity throughout the school and clubs. We have so many activities for so many different students and we continue to upgrade our clubs and sports. Overall there are many different resources to help with anything you might need.

My experience at Shakopee High School were somewhat good in academics, and great in clubs. Many teachers were overwhelmed with students and could not help each student individually, but the school has great AP options. The school has many clubs that fit any student.
