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.

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.

Stanhope was a change for me. Especially since it was my first time being in millbrook. The best part of being at Stanhope is meeting the people that work there and the awesome students that work there. another best experience i had was FLEX. it was only around for my freshmen year for about a couple of months. but those couple of months were the best. it allows me to talk with my friends, eat lunch with my friends, catch up on any work, study and even go to teachers classrooms for help on or studies. my not so great experience was more closer to having to adjust to the new environment. It was hard for me to make friends, and still is. I somewhat learned to be happy alone but someday i wish I had those friends to sit with at lunch without feeling left out or awkward.

It's a pretty good school and care about the students even though we have to put our phones in pouches.Always has police officers on campus and stay around the school.Very big about students safety.Academic wise not bad they make sure students make there best and help them if not doing there best.

My experience has been wonderful. Being a military child, I've been to a vast number of schools and Stanhope Elmore is one of the best that I've been to in terms of atmosphere. Multiple of the teachers have become like second and third parents to me, even after their retirement.

For several ye...

Tri county schools are bad in general and nobody cares that they are, get your child in a private school where they care more about academics instead of sports!!!!!

If you want your child to seam like an absolute genius, be sure to enroll them in this school. The shear stupidity of the students in this school will make your child look like an Ivy League caliber student in comparison. The mental capacity of every single person on that campus is comparable to tha...
