Principal Shepherd is the school Principal of James Woods Regional High School.

He let Peter Griffin talk him into disguising himself as a student, Lando Griffin, to uncover the school's toad problem in "Let's Go to the Hop".

In "The Kiss Seen Around the World", he is seen when a teacher, Mr. Lazenby is arrested for teaching that evolution was put into motion when Gil Gerard, star of the television series Buck Rogers in the 25th Century, “used a time machine, went back and ejaculated into the primordial ooze.”

He is mentioned in "When You Wish Upon a Weinstein" when Peter claims he is at Temple.

He fires Lois Griffin as sex-education teacher and introduces Jerry Kirkwood and the Opal Ring Crusade in "Prick Up Your Ears".

He expels Chris Griffin for being the dumbest kid in school in "No Chris Left Behind". He is the one who reveals The Performance Artist's name to be Bruce as they are on the PTA Board together.

He was one of the townspeople who contributed to the mayoral debate between Lois and incumbent Mayor Adam West at the Quahog Community Center in "It Takes a Village Idiot, and I Married One", asking Lois what she plans to do about crime in a rare out-of-school appearance.

He also appears in "Stew-Roids" at Chris's downfall.

Chris gets in trouble for telling a dirty joke in "The Splendid Source", so Shepherd has a meeting with his parents regarding the incident.

He is arranged and held the assembly for Chris's essay contest victory in "New Kidney in Town".

Principal Shephard calls a conference with Peter and Lois when Chris does poorly in school in "Space Cadet".
