"Although Shawnee isn't in the nicest area of town, the staff do the best they can with the lack of resources that the school receives from the district. Most of the students come from a poverty stricken area ( Portland) but students still seem to have plenty of school spirit. Shawnee is on the rise to be a better school!"

"My child attends the Academy@ Shawnee Middle School. It is an EXCELLENT middle school, as the class sizes are small, the administration is supportive, present, and interactive, and the teaching staff is amazing. Sending my child to the Academy@Shawnee Middle School was the best decision we could have ever made!!"
