Was a good school over all. Some teachers were nice as some weren't. Can not complain about anything.

What I like about Atrisco Heritage are the resources that I can use to seek a good education in college as well as the openness to make change according to the wishes of student body. Atrisco Heritage offers resources such as LNESC Upward Bound which provides assistance for college as well as just passing every class with a good grade. Atrisco Heritage also offers diverse clubs, an involved Student Council, and a hard-working sports system.

It isn't bad, but it's also not the best. The food on good days is average but on bad days is disgusting. With the teachers you have a 1/7 chance on getting a bad one.

The community of Atrisco Heritage Academy HS is amazing. My experience from high school was very good and I feel like I was prepared for college. I loved the community so much I came back to teach so that I can help and inspire the way my teachers did as well.

This school has poor parent-teacher relations. They have teachers that can not speak English teaching math and science because this makes sense How??? The teachers have no integrity, and the principal makes promises and nothing happens at the end.

This is a beautiful school. I am very glad that my grandchild attends here. I am very impressed (for the most part) with the faculty. I did however run into one instructor that did not seem to have much control over her class. The students in this class were disruptive and blatantly rude....but that...
