My experience at Albany high school was amazing it made me into the person I am today. The teachers are always there to make sure you understand the material and will not stop until you get it. The faculty and stuff if Albany high school are extraordinary because of the way they will go above and beyond to help a child succeeded. My only complaint about Albany high is the college readiness, the students and also the counselors do not prepare students for college until late into their junior year and by then it's too late.

I love Albany High it is a special school with great administration, some really good teachers, excellent programs and an overall good environment, although the food needs an upgrade.
The teachers at Albany High School are 50/50. You have some of them who are only there to get a paycheck, but you also have those who genuinely care about you and your success. Most of the teachers are very knowledgeable in the subjects that they teach in. Just because someone is knowledgeable doesn't mean that they are approachable. Overall the school is decent and has its good nd bad just like any other high school.
