My experience with IDEA College Prep Alamo has been great. IDEA offers opportunities to grow and take on classes that challenge them. IDEA offers college classes that will allow us to earn credit by the time that we get to college which helps us save money in the long run. The best part of IDEA is the classes that we take because they prepare us for college. The teachers are also great because they are always very helpful and are determined to get you to where you need to be academically. The worst part of IDEA is the fact that we are forced to wear uniforms which limits how we express ourselves. This is something that I would change because the students feel suppressed having to wear a uniform that doesn't allow them to express themselves.

My best experience with IDEA College Prep - Alamo is their Hispanic Festival that they have every year. This event brings everyone from IDEA together to share their Hispanic culture. My worst experience with this school is the food because it can be very bad when eating it. I would like to see a change in the lunch and breakfast menu because I'm currently bulking.

I love how close teachers and students are. Since it's a small high school, with less than 90 seniors, staff and students get to have a lot of 1 on 1 interactions, allowing students to succeed more. I also loved how they ensure 100% of students go into college. Counselors make sure students are as successful as possible and give students their full attention. One thing that wasn't the best was the lack of student spirit and activities. There was never really Homecoming Games or dances, it was majorly based on academics.

IDEA Alamo is the best school I have EVER been to, and believe me, I have been to a lot. The teachers are so kind and caring, and just amazing people to be around. They treat you like family, and genuinely WANT you to succeed in college and life. Ms.Deleon's class is always fun, she makes us want to...
