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.

I have enjoyed my time at Stoneham High School. I started during the pandemic, which was a challenge to say the least. Starting high school while wearing masks was not the best experience, but we all made it through. I have learned so much and thrived during my time here. My teachers have been wonderful , however the school it self is under much needed construction and that is the only negative experience i have dealt with.

Overall, this school has prepared me for college and life beyond. Although the school is old and getting redone, I can still concentrate on my learning. This school offers plenty of help with schoolwork, college or anything else that needs to be done. Everyone that attends is very involved with sports, theater, and clubs. I love all of the memories and friendships that I have made during my years at Stoneham High School.

Teachers were hit or miss, the 2021 school was in horrible condition, broken water fountains, no AC, birds in the gymnasium. Very small, only like 600-700 students, mediocre sports team.

I was asked to take a few days to think about it. I called the the school and informed them of my decision to remain enrolled...
