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 experience really depends on whether you put yourself out there or not, that's the most important part of any experience for highschool or college. We have an amazing team that gives us resources.

Thomas Stone High School is what you make it. Like any place you go to you may be persuaded or guided but it's overall your choice of what the experience is going to be like. I've made my experience at this school good and for my final year i'll just be focusing on getting out. This school made me realize the type of university i want to attend. An HBCU with good student life , great staff, and great education because i've never had that.
