This School’s Reviews

In my experience, Sheldon High School has been an awesome school to attend. SHS has a great atmosphere, friendly students, well-kept facilities, healthy and delicious lunches, lots of independence for students, and the class schedule. SHS does block-style scheduling for classes, so the longer class periods for more focus-based learning has helped me a lot. The teachers have been helpful to me, and I enjoy my independent learning.

Sheldon High School, SHS, has quite a bit to work on. First, I would recommend that they come down harder on students who are bullying their peers. I would also like to recommend that they work harder to help students who need it and ask for it instead of allowing them to feel like they are alone. The most important thing I think SHS needs to work on is mental health awareness and education. I know many students who graduated from Sheldon with mental health problems because they didn't receive the help they needed.

I really enjoyed the drama department. The coaches do a wonderful job and truly care. A vast majority of the teacher enjoy what they do and show it in their teaching.
