My experience at stone high for the past four years has been a journey i will never forget. The best part about being at stone high is the bonds and relationships you can make with your classmates and teachers, and also the long time memories. The worst part of being at stone high is the dress code. which sucks because they are uncomfortable and when it gets come there's no way to keep warm. The changes i'll like to see is we getting our own football field, no dress code, and a better protect of the overall school.

Stone high school is highly diverse in it's student body and faculty. Many of the teachers who work here genuinely have kind hearts, good intentions, and wish to help their students learn and grow. despite the worn down state of the building and lack of up-keep for the facilities, the staff do their best too keep school spirits raised.

This school is a three ring circus. The principal is rude and doesn't care anything about customer service. The teachers exempt students from finals and then give them zeros. Then the office staff are unable to assist in resolving issues the correct way. Instead they just push you off until the firs...

I am a student at Stone High School and it is a school that I would not want my students attending. The staff and principal talk about how they want to avoid any conflicts that students face with other students, but it is just talk. They do not pay attention to warning signs or potential distraction...
