Background and Aim: This study was aimed to determine the relationship between spiritual intelligence and creativity with shyness in high school girls.  Methods:  The research method was descriptive-correlational, and the research design was correlational. Among the adolescent high school girls in Saveh city who were studying in the academic year of 2015-2016, a statistical sample of 150 students was selected by cluster random sampling. The tools of this study were King's Spiritual Intelligence Scale, Abedi Creativity Questionnaire, and Samui Shyness Questionnaire. Data were analyzed by Pearson correlation method and simple linear regression model.  Results: The results showed that there was a positive relationship between spiritual intelligence and creativity with a correlation coefficient (r = 0.207 and P = 0.05). And there is a significant negative relationship between spiritual intelligence and shyness with a correlation coefficient (r = -0.181 and 0.05) and between shyness and creativity with the obtained correlation coefficient (r = -0.164 and P = 0.05). Regression analysis also showed that spiritual intelligence and creativity predict shyness in students.  Conclusion: Findings showed that the component of transcendent awareness was effective in predicting shyness among students.
