Rating 4.27 out of 5 52 reviews
What I love about Alamo Heights is how much opportunity the district and area has to offer, and how the community generally strives for excellence in nearly every aspect. The Rocketry program, cheerleading, band, robotics, football, orchestra are all high-achieving programs with excellent teachers/coaches who want the best for their students. However, Alamo Heights has a reputation for being a very elitist community with so much money circulating through the area, and usually the same few wealthy families are the ones in power in politics and on the school board. I believe they don’t have the ability to properly represent everyone in Alamo Heights and it often leads to a very exclusive and isolating experience for minorities and families with less money.
Alamo Heights Independent School district (AHISD), has an extremely high level of academics. For high school specifically, this school has an infinite amount of resources for students to succeed in this school, and after it. Coming from a student who transferred this year, I have never seen so many resources available for you to do good. This school gave me more access to help from experts, college research, and accessibility to AP/IB classes. It is a competitive school, but this school makes students want to be better. They have everything necessary to prepare you for your future. I wouldn't change anything about it.
What I love about AHISD is the amount of resources and opportunities I have access to. We have excellent programs within athletics, fine arts, and academic teams which are all beloved by our community and receive so much loving and financial support. It opens a lot of doors for us as students. What I sometimes don't love about AHISD is how quickly our teachers come and go. Many of my old teachers from freshman, sophomore, and junior year have left the district, and I'm not sure if it is a reflection of our district's administration. It's hard to watch them go.
