Stadium High School is an excellent school that prepares each unique student for college and beyond. It is a diverse student body and the administration and teachers are highly professional, organized, and great communicators. There are opportunities for students of various backgrounds from clubs to sports to music, theater arts, and more. Additionally, they have excellent CTE classes and teachers and one of my son's earned an IRC certificate in personal finances preparing him for real life responsibilities beyond school and into life. I highly recommend Stadium as a top-notch public school providing graduates who are ready for college and beyond.

As a junior at Stadium High School, my experience has been fairly decent. The staff and teachers are compassionate people and you can tell that they genuinely care about your success and how you grow as a person. In addition, the students are also very supportive and kind. Through the music programs offered at Stadium, "the castle", many of the students were passionate and like-minded to me, making it possible to foster a sense of community through those extracurriculars. An issue that I ran into at this school though, was mental health awareness. I knew quite a few people who struggled with mental health problems, and I feel like Stadium didn't offer enough help or resources. In the future, I think either through the School's morning announcement or during assemblies, should they promote mental health awareness, and provide students with opportunities to recieve the help they may need.

The administration does not support teachers. They let the students abuse the teachers and provide zero resources to aid in dealing with disruptive students. In fact, they reprimand the teachers for taking a stand against students. They are absolutely unsupportive. I have never witnessed anything worse than this school. I am not a teacher but work at the school and see, first hand, how bad teachers are treated with no recourse for the students. Good teachers are a dying breed. Admin is pushing them out, one-by-one.
