I have enjoyed my time at Stoneham High School. I started during the pandemic, which was a challenge to say the least. Starting high school while wearing masks was not the best experience, but we all made it through. I have learned so much and thrived during my time here. My teachers have been wonderful , however the school it self is under much needed construction and that is the only negative experience i have dealt with.
