The educators at Staunton High School take pride in the teaching of every student that walks through the doors. That being said, the environment is not 'top-notch' compared to other area schools due to the age of the building and resources within. All in all, Staunton High School is a great place to have spent my last three years of high school. I am looking forward to completing my last year here.

Not a very good school at all. Most of the teachers are very involved with the kids and want to see them succeed but otherwise there's nothing special here.

Throughout all four years at Staunton high school, there was never any doubt in my mind that the staff and administrators genuinely wanted the best for their students. It wasn't just a job for them, but a passion to help young people to grow up and reach their full potential. Bullying was never tolerated, and the academics exceed expectations.
