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.

Shenandoah High School is definitely one of the better high schools in Southwest Iowa. Our staff are extremely kind and genuinely good people. We are constantly adding and expanding clubs and programs to be inclusive and give everyone a group to be a part of. Our high school students and staff are like a constantly growing family and even when one class graduates they never forget their beginnings or those that helped them get to where they are.
