    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 liked cheering for Albany High School from freshman year all the way through senior year. I would change the look of the gym to a more modern appearance.
    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.
