Our district provides staff members reduced cost daycare, a pay scale above the state minimum, and a $250 annual classroom stipend, to name only a few of the advantages for working for Shawnee Public Schools. We at Shawnee believe in supporting the whole student, such as through our telemedicine health clinics at every school site, our award winning fine arts programs, and our access to diverse activities and athletics opportunities. With the support of Shawnee's AVEDIS Foundation and the Blue Zones Project of Pottawatomie County, Shawnee is quickly becoming known as a community focused on everyone's total well being.
