Shawnee High School

END of first quarter

Wow, time is flying by! We cannot believe the first quarter of the school year has come and gone. Our students have done a tremendous job with following our COVID guidelines and getting back into the routine of school. Our staff has been working diligently and endlessly to provide the best education for our students in-person and remotely. We appreciate everyone's efforts, patience, and communication throughout the first nine weeks. Let's continue these positive things throughout the rest of the school year. Go Indians!
