Students are stressed out about homework. Teachers rush to complete the syllabus and do not take time to teach. The main approach is focused on memorizing rather than taking time to learn and develop deep understanding. Diversity is in name only. It is a school for the white and rich.

My experience at Stone Ridge was pretty good. The administration is kind of awful and a lot of the students who have been there since before high school are pretty cliquey (definitely your peaked-in-high-school type), but I was able to find a really good group of friends that I still keep in touch with. The academics also definitely prepared me for college. College has fortunately been a breeze.

I have to go to this school because my parents want me to. School sucks. There is too much homework, and teachers don't care to help. Bullying is common, and reporting gets you in trouble. I can not wait to get out of this school. I used to be a happy person until my parents put me in this school.

Go if you are white, rich, and catholic. Nothing wrong with a school being that if it is not sold as inclusive. Very little is taught in the class. Back breaking backpacks and all consuming homework. No time to do anything else. Stress is overpowering, leading so many students to anxiety disorders,...

Stone Ridge is amazing!! My two daughters love it there, are learning so much, and socially thriving with all their friends. I would strongly recommend this school to anyone looking to build strong, happy, confident, smart, engaging girls and women!
