Stoney Creek High School is a public high school located in Rochester Hills, Michigan and is part of the Rochester Community Schools school district.

Construction began in 1997 when voters approved a bond issue for building improvements in the growing district. The school board decided to name the school after the nearby historic village of Stony Creek. The 420,000 sq ft (39,000 m²) high school opened in 2001 at a total cost of $64 million. The building first housed Rochester Adams students when their school was being renovated. It later housed Rochester High School Students in the 2001–2002 school year. The building also housed North Hill Elementary students when their school was receiving extensive renovations in the 2002–2003 school year but, the elementary students only attended class in half of the school while the other half was used by students of Stoney Creek. The building similarly housed Hart Middle School students when their school underwent renovations in the 2018–2019 school year.

The school began renovations in 2019 after the district funding bond, including a remodel of the media center.

The first principal was Daniel Hickey, who retired in 2009. The second principal of Stoney Creek High School was Larry Goralski, who was named the Michigan Association of Student Councils (MASC) Principal of the Year in 2010. Dr. Cathryn Skedel served as principal from 2014 to 2020. Brian Shelson is the current principal.

Stoney Creek High School has various boys and girls sports in the fall, winter, and spring seasons.^[3]

The varsity football program is currently under head coach Nick Merlo, who originated the "Armor Up" theme in 2018. He coached the cougars to a playoff appearance in 2019 and a district finals appearance in 2020, along with Stoney Creek's first-ever undefeated regular season in 2020.
