My experience with Alba-Golden high school is a mostly postive one. The school itself is a good school. The teachers are super nice and treat students with respect. The administration also treats all students wi the respect. The school facilities are old and the biggest thing that needs fixed is a new gym. Overall Alba-Golden high school is a good school.

The best part of this school is definitely the people. I have gone to school here since the fourth grade and I love the people but hate the place. The school is under funded and needs new facilities.

I am a former teacher/coach and former student of this school. I can say that not only did Alba-Golden prepare me for the real world, but it also helped prepare me for excelling at the collegiate level. I was more than thrilled to get to come back and re-invest what had been invested into me through...
