Some of my best experiences through Shawano Highschool is definately how supportive and helpful my teachers are, especially the science teachers. The wrost I have had is that there are alot of mean people.

My family moved from a big city to a small town. When our Kids transferred, all the teachers were kind, and the whole village and school were like a family. Rather, I felt safer because I could easily observe children's activities and education than a very large school. It's easy to access exercise...

This school does the bare minimum, with no programs or systems in place to help transgender students. If you're transgender you will be treated poorly by students, teachers, and staff of this school.

My children for the most part excelled, in everything but mathematics. The teachers are far to rigid in their methods with very poor people skills. Otherwise they were challenged and learning with very little problems.

My school is struggling to survive. Staff morale is literally negative. Pay is mediocre. Kids, like all kids, are great.
