The Explorer program is excellent. The emphasis on science research is outstanding. It's no wonder they win so many science fair awards, at the county and state levels. They also provide the best field trips, some that are unique to Stone, and extracurricular activities. My oldest just graduated and my youngest can't wait to be a Gopher next year.

I was a victim of assault and theft at this school multiple times. Staff did not care and actually suggested that I was cowardly for seeking a transfer.
