This School’s Reviews

5.0 Senior

1/22/2025

I love how many oppurtunities there are at Shawnee Heights. Not only from clubs, sports, and activities, but also the lists of scholarships the administration provides you with during your junior and senior year.

3.0 Senior

2/28/2023

I liked that Shawnee Heights High allows students to take several classes. I like how there are college classes available through Washburn University and Allen. I do not have many complaints. The only complaint I have is surrounding the bathroom issues. Bathrooms get closed down due to students vaping, but when they close, I am not able to use it which is frustrating.

4.0 Junior

2/2/2023

The class opportunities and club/extra curricular activities are plentiful. The only issue is the school is a very closed off community where students grew up with one another so it can be hard to find good, close friends.
