The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

While Talton K. Stone is an excellent middle school, I rated 3/5 due simply to the lack of individuality in the school. While I attended, murals and paintings covered the walls, and vibrant colors greeted you every morning. I paid a visit a few weeks past, and they covered all of our murals, paintings, and markings with black and white paint. They removed the spirit of creativity and freedom and replaced it with a prison feeling.

Sullied with mold and violence. If you see any alternatives for a school, take it. The locker rooms are a hazard and the students are no better.

TK Stone was a great middle school for both of my children. Middle school can be a hard transition for students and the teachers and staff made it very smooth for both of my children. If I was new to the area, TK Stone would be my number one middle school to send my children without hesitation!
