Shelley High School is an interesting place to be. Students are connected and teachers care. Somehow students can still feel alone. The counselors at Shelley are incredible and very helpful. Every student is proud to be a russet.

I really enjoy going to Shelley High School everyone there is so nice and helpful. When people ask where I go to and I say my high school they are like that must suck but I enjoy it very much. There may not be many of us but just enough for it to feel like a family. The only problems I have is that it is outdated we don't have a very "NICE" school but just enough to get us through the day.

Shelley High School is small enough that teachers and administrators know students by name, but not so small that everyone is in your business all the time. Students and teachers support each other.

SHS does not prepare students for college period. Hoping things will change for the better with a new principal for next year. The only goo...

This school and in fact the whole district is a joke. This is nothing short of a good old boys club no matter the venue. Sports are king and a joke, it's all about who you are and what can your family do for the coach. Academics are worse. Nearly every teacher has their hand in coaching in some form...
