The education that can be received at the school is great! Unfortunately many issues plague the school. Incoherent schedules that make understanding where and when you're supposed to be difficult, violent fights that often occur in the school, and issues with staffing for students with IEPs
The school is good and the curriculum is good, aside from the fact that there should be more classes offered related to the real world. One of the best aspects of not only this school, but the whole district is that it is very diverse. There are people of every race, ethnicity, religion, etc. That is a great thing, however it doesn't reflect the real world which could be an problem for when we go off to college. The teachers, for the most part are very helpful and are good at what they do. I loved playing football and rugby at Shaker, even though we could use more school spirit for games and pep rallies. One thing the school does have problem with, however, is pushing minorities to enroll in higher level classes. There is a very wide gap and in most of the honors and AP classes I take, there aren't many people that look like me and it isn't right. But other than that, the school is really good and I would encourage parents to enroll there kids here.
Shaker heights high school is en excellent high school in terms of preparing its students for success in college. In terms of academic resources, the school is outstanding. However, not all students in the shaker community have equal opportunity, and measures to ensure that the opportunities that shaker offers are distributed evenly would improve the school for all its students.
