I'm so glad I chose Shipley. Not only have I received a great academic experience, but it has exceeded all expectations I had when applying. I feel fully supported by the resources available to be, my teachers and faculty, and community to succeed and be the best student I can be. Not only that, but I feel extremely prepared for the future ahead of me and have no doubt that I have a strong foundation built by the school to help.

As a (very recent) former member of administration, it was frustrating to see how far the opinions of the wealthy parents go. Not sure many decisions are made in the best interest of the students.
