Stony Point High School is a high school in the Round Rock Independent School District in Round Rock, Texas, USA. It is the second newest of the five high schools in RRISD. The principal is Albert Hernandez, who previously worked as the principal of the Stony Point Ninth Grade Center. The Ninth Grade Center is adjacent to the high school and was formerly home to Hopewell Middle School. However, due to overcrowding, a concern that is continuously prevalent in the RRISD school district, the middle school was changed into a freshman-only campus. Due to the opening of Cedar Ridge High School, Stony Point freshmen were moved into the main campus, and the freshman campus is now used as Hernandez Middle School.
The school houses the Health Science (previously Science and Medicine), the S.T.E.M.(Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics), and the Business, Finance, and Marketing Academies. Stony Point has offered the International Baccalaureate since the school year of 2008-2009.
Stony Point's feeder schools are Hernandez and Hopewell middle schools.

To see the elephant jump the fence.

And didn’t get back till the Fourth of July.”

Through Jonathan Swift’s dark grove he passed, and there
Plucked bitter wisdom that enriched his blood.”
