School Reviews
| 2 Not a school of academic quality. Limited athletic programs, but the school puts all focus in them, instead of academics. Gifted classes or awards are only offered to staff's children. Lots of parental involvement, but it interferes with administering school discipline policies for select children. This school violates so many laws, civil rights, and state regulations, I do not know how they stay open. - Posted by Parent - darrk |
| 5 Shongaloo High School is great for everyone. We have a school basketball team, cheerleading squad, a baseball, and softball team. We have many things extra for students. Are parents help out w/ school funtions and are studints are great. Go Tigers! - Posted by Parent - samce |
