I moved to Stow as a senior and it's been an excellent experience all around. Students, administration and staff are kind and inclusive.

Overall, Stow-Munroe Falls High School is a great place to be. While it has a reputation of being more of a "dump" school, it actually is very nice. The teachers and administrators at the school care for their students a lot. One thing that could be changed is the overall condition of the school could be updates, for example, the carpets, lockers, bathrooms, etc.

My time at SMFHS I have nothing to complain about. Each staff member made sure all students felt listened to and supported, whether that be academically or emotionally. When I was dealing with things at home, each teacher was alerted and was patient with me helping me get the things I needed and stay caught up while not overwhelming me.

I can't speak on all of the guidance counselors, but if you have Mrs. Paul and she gets to know you, she is so incredibly helpful. Mr. Tr...

I'm an alumnus of SMFHS and can definitely say that I had a positive experience during my time here and was well-prepared for college. I took advantage of the many AP and Honors classes and found the teachers to be engaging and the courses challenging. Plenty of graduates matriculate at Ivy League a...
