Stand alone

It should absolutely stand alone, the James Thornton and Shaker Theatre entry. He was a complete genius and revolutionary. Patrick Reeve Boyd www.patrickboyd.us — Preceding unsigned comment added by 12.38.208.3 (talk • contribs) 19:13, 5 September 2006‎ (UTC)[reply]

Merge it. Nothing against the theater department, but there's nothing so spectacular about it that it warrants an entry at least twice as long as the school. It's a good school, and I'm sure a good theater department, but there's no need for a description of every single course offered. A sentence or two would suffice, since the notable alumni are all already listed in the school page. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Theotherkg (talk • contribs) 22:42, 3 November 2006‎‎ (UTC)

Advanced placement classes

Changed: A bit of wording with regards to AP classes causing stress, only some students have problems with overscheduling and overwork. --65.43.196.153 18:57, 28 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Changed: The above change was unnecessary and entirely subjective ("causes students undue stress"; "more than necessary") and superfluous; also I fixed some of the poor word choices ("sports...sports...sports...").

I must agree though that the prominence of the theatre department and its graduates (it is well known even in the professional theatre world) merits its being included in a separate entry, albeit no longer than the entry on the school. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 140.247.155.183 (talk • contribs) 05:45, 1 March 2007‎ (UTC)[reply]

Why am I not surprised...

...that the majority of editing is done by anon ip's with a similar range? Also, kids, remember to put the name of the country that your school/city/State is in when writing in an international encyclopedia, so other folk in other countries know where it is (like when you look up Liege for your studies).

Theatre department

Yes, we all know that shaker has a diecent theatre department but the changes i made make it a little less conspicious towards some people's byasses. Not everyone who goes/ or has gone to the high school likes the way the theatre department has been set up and for an encyclopedia entry perhaps more on the educational standards of shaker heights high school would be appropriate. Also the entry on the theatre department had more detail and was longer than the rest of the information, and seeing as shaker heights high school is not a theatre/arts school then there is no reason for it to be the longest and only education based entry. --b — Preceding unsigned comment added by Bsstein (talk • contribs) 16:04, 16 August 2007‎ (UTC)[reply]

Factual error

graduation date for David Wain is incorrect -- he graduated well before Carter Bays (1993) but are listed as part of the same graduating class. — Arin Miller, SHHS class of 1992 76.243.186.88 (talk) 01:54, 14 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
