6/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageShell lake school is the worst school I have seen for bullying. I wish I could say its from students, but its not. There are faculty and a bus driver that I know of. I am hoping to relocate out of this district .If I was able to rate them less then one star I would.Parent Review12y ago - Shell Lake Jr/Sr High School

4/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageIf you're not rich and from the area don't send your kids here. If you are rich and from the area your kids will thrive. My kids came from another state and all 3 of them hate it here. They are bullied by other students and some of the teachers. When my daughter was being hit in gym class and told the gym teacher she was told that's just what he does and the behavior continued with nothing being done. There's not a day that goes by that I don't regret moving my kids here and as time goes on it gets worse. I've heard firsthand one teacher tell a parent about bumping a kids grade up even though he slept through her class the entire time, yet when my kids struggle they can't even get help. We've lived several places and my kids have been to several schools. We've never had all the issues we have here and seen money and popularity be put on such a pedestal like it is here.Parent Review2y ago
