I attended this school district from K-12 and have had no bad experiences! The teachers have always gone above and behind to help the student in whatever they needed. The student population is quite diverse allowing for a well balanced community. The most impressive thing is the development of opportunities that were created at the high school. They have culinary, marketing, business, and healthcare options that even allow for shadowing of people who are currently in those professions. Another thing I admired about the high school teachers is that what they taught some have worked previously in that field.

One of my favorite things about the Allen Independent School District is that the students are offered a multitude of opportunities for any pathway he or she chooses to follow educationally. There are multiple levels offered for almost every course, an elaborate facility for elective classes such as fine arts, culinary, and theater! This helps students develop a better understanding of what life in different areas of study would look like, and I love that!
As a previous student, my experience at Allen was a mix of both negatives and positives. I feel the administration needs improvement with organization and giving more students a voice. As an art student, I wish that i was able to show all my pieces regardless of political correctness and the uncensored versions of them. Even when we had a walk out rally protesting gun laws, we were given punishments by the administration. I have had friends with mental health issues get turned down by the administration and not given the proper resources. The administration is also infamous for the Transgender Dead Name issue when the class of '18 graduated with trans student Jay Alfie. I wish the administration recognizes that the students of AHS are a diverse body, both physically and psychologically.
