About Shaker Athletics
Shaker High School is a member of the New York State Public High School Athletic Association, competing as a Class A/AA school in Section 2. Our league affiliation is with the Suburban Scholastic Council. There are 29 Varsity level sport offerings including 15 levels for boys, and 14 levels for girls.
Shaker High School offers more than 80 levels (Modified, Frosh, J.V., Varsity) of interscholastic competition for our students in grades 7-12. We believe that participation in sports provides a wealth of opportunities and experiences which assist students in their secondary education. Interscholastic athletics serve as a miniature model of life, providing opportunities for students with regard to responsibility, fair play, cooperation, concern for others, leadership, respect for coaches and all authority figures, good citizenship, loyalty, and tolerance.
