from the Principal
Welcome. On behalf of the faculty and staff at W. H. Shaw
High School, welcome to a new and exciting school year. Our newly
renovated school provides our students and teachers with a physical plant
commensurate with the lessons we teach. Pride,
Character, Excellence, and Dedication may simply be words in other places,
but we expect our students to portray these positive character traits
in academics, athletics, and in life. The traditions and expectations
of outstanding achievement at Shaw are high, and we expect to continue
and expand our enviable record with another exemplary year. Please do not
hesitate to contact us should you have questions. Go Raiders!
