GreatSchools Rating
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.

the best part of my high school experience is the clubs. Stratford high has great, involved clubs that are welcoming to all students. The worst part is the building itself. The actual building has had a problem with gas leaks or broken stoves every year. Also the air conditioner and heating doesn't work.

I have found myself entirely when it comes to a very amazing school My school is like a home away from home, where I don't feel out of place or homesick. It is a place where I learn, laugh, smile, play, and enjoy. It stirred up many emotions in me for good reasons, and I will always be thankful to my school and wonderful teachers. Having completed my formal education, I have found the information I want, and how to read and study effectively to become more knowledgeable about the world around you. Education thus helps you continue to grow as an individual throughout your life. Through education, you learn research skills and how to question what you read and hear. Higher education helps you evaluate the information you receive and determine whether the sources are likely to be reliable and impartial. Finding who I am is Important because Identity can be seen as the essential and unique characteristics that define who a person is. It is often shaped by a combination of factors.

I started Stratford High while still being at the "old school". It was shortly thereafter we transferred to the newer building which is worlds better than the old. I see the school now and it looks like a small college, a good thing for our students. Overall I enjoyed my time at SHS.
