School Overview

Tucked into the south end of Puyallup, Doris Stahl Junior High sits in a solidly middle-of-the-road spot statewide but holds its own as a dependable option in a district that serves a large and diverse community at the foot of Mount Rainier. The school tends to draw families who are rooted in this part of Pierce County — folks who appreciate the suburban feel of South Puyallup, with its mix of newer subdivisions and easy access to outdoor life. It's a reasonable choice for families settling into the area who want a steady, community-oriented middle school experience without the pressure of a hyper-competitive environment.
