School Notes:
  • Charles E. Shea High School, commonly known as Shea High School, is an American secondary school in Pawtucket, Rhode Island. Shea is part of the Pawtucket School Department. The mascot is the "Shea High Raider". The school was named after a well-known Pawtucket resident, Charles E. Shea.
  • After a low test-score history for some years, the State authorities were going to take control of the school, but good scores in 2006 averted this.[1]
  • School enrollment is about 1,188 students: 1% Asian, 29% Hispanic, 39% Black, and 31% White.
  • Pawtucket Mayor James Doyle attends Shea's graduation every year as a speaker.
