Stone Magnet Middle School is a public magnet middle school located in Melbourne, Florida, serving grades 7-8 with a total enrollment of 585 students. The school is part of the Brevard District, which is ranked 23 out of 67 districts in Florida and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

While Stone Magnet Middle School has a relatively low student-teacher ratio and has seen a steady increase in per-student spending, the school consistently underperforms compared to the Brevard District and Florida state averages across various standardized tests, including EOC, FAST, and Statewide Science exams. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, the school's proficiency rates were significantly lower than the district and state in Algebra 1 (42% vs. 57% and 60%), Civics (53% vs. 73% and 71%), and 8th grade Science (35% vs. 53% and 49%).

When comparing Stone Magnet Middle School to nearby schools in the Brevard District, such as Thomas Jefferson Middle School, Delaura Middle School, and Southwest Middle School, it becomes evident that Stone Magnet Middle School is underperforming academically, with these nearby schools consistently outperforming it on standardized tests. This raises questions about the effective allocation and utilization of the school's resources to improve student outcomes.
