Overall the sense of community is nice to see as it is an extremely small school, however the academic side of things lacks from my experience. This is unfortunate for those who wish to further their education, who will likely be behind in their courses due to the lack of college readiness implemented in the curriculum.

I went to alba school back in 2021, nothing good came out of it. My little brother was beat up by several girls with a hair brush because they didn't like what he had to say. He came home crying with bruises on several different occasions. That school is full of pure pressurement and neglect. I would not suggest this school to anyone. All these good reviews were made my staff for good looks on the school.

It is a good place. Great teachers. Lots of chances to make advances in your education. The students are like family. Help is always offered to students when needed. And if your moving at a faster rate they will make sure that your are ready for it and help you along the way.
