The mission of the Shaw High School Mass Communications Academy is to develop in young people the critical skills necessary to succeed in the world of mass communications and mass media through extensive coursework in audio, video, technology and film with an emphasis on students continuing to post-secondary education/training. Expanded course offerings will include video production, writing for media, announcing, graphics production, news reporting, media law, business advertising, speech/forensics, social media, and internships with media related businesses. The MCA curricular vision includes attractive opportunities for students in every subject area designed to enhance student skills in written, verbal, and broadcast communications.  

Our magnet program consists of three courses.  This enables our magnet students the opportunity to explore so many of the other opportunities available at Shaw.  Our focus is preparing students for college with a variety of Advanced Placement courses, honors and accelerated courses, as well as the opportunity for dual enrollment (many of our magnet students are full time dual enrolled students as seniors at Columbus State University, Georgia Military College, and other local colleges/universities).

William H Shaw High School Mass Communication Magnet Open House will be back in person this year.
