I love it here in Shenandoah School District. People are friendly here and make you feel welcomed. There are different kinds of activities for kids to do and the staff are amazing. They are always there for people to talk to and great at helping you if you need it. There is so much school spirit in the building and everyone goes out for dress up days for homecoming or other events. Overall, this school is so much fun and glad I could spend my time there.
