My high school experience at here Mark T Sheehan has been unexplainable as I wouldn't have changed it if i could've. There is amazing students an faculty here that won't rest until you get the best. Along with that there are amazing sport teams that a very inviting and comforting an a club certainly fit for your liking somewhere in the school. Overall Sheehan high school has been a second home to me where i learned many lessons how how to handle my independence better.
