Shawnee Heights Middle School
Shawnee Heights Middle School's mascot is the Thunderbird. The Middle School has around 580 Students. The 7th and 8th Grade Students are split up into Red, White, and Blue Teams. The Teams each have a set of teachers for a better learning experience and less of a confusion for the younger Students. The Middle School provides sport programs for the Students but not to the extent that the High School does. The School has 3 computer rooms and an award-winning media center. The School uses an academic program called T-Bird P.R.I.D.E. This gives the Students some incentive to get good grades and work hard. Benefits to this program include free entry into home games, free food, free gift cards, and the special dinner at the end of the year known, as "Night of the Stars". This dinner is for students achieving T-Bird P.R.I.D.E. for the entire year. The Principal for the Middle School is Mr. Tim Hallacy. The Assistant Principal is Mr. Bradley Mickens.

“The heights of popularity and patriotism are still the beaten road to power and tyranny; flattery to treachery; standing armies to arbitrary government; and the glory of God to the temporal interest of the clergy.”
—David Hume (1711–1776)
“The test of an adventure is that when you’re in the middle of it, you say to yourself, “Oh, now I’ve got myself into an awful mess; I wish I were sitting quietly at home.” And the sign that something’s wrong with you is when you sit quietly at home wishing you were out having lots of adventure.”
—Thornton Wilder (1897–1975)
“But I am not tragically colored. There is no great sorrow dammed up in my soul, nor lurking behind my eyes. I do not mind at all. I do not belong to the sobbing school of negrohood who hold that nature somehow has given them a lowdown dirty deal.... No, I do not weep at the world—I am too busy sharpening my oyster knife.”
—Zora Neale Hurston (1907–1960)
