GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

Many people think life in a small school is boring, but quite a lot goes on in the walls of Alburnett. The minds of so many great students help to put on exciting school and community events. The nice thing about a small school is you're able to know not just everyone in your own class, but almost everyone in the whole high school. I wish more clubs were offered, but I understand it's hard to with a limited staff and advisers.

It is such a tight knit small community, you really get to chance to know everybody and make memories with them

At Alburnett it really is a hit or miss with teachers. I had teachers that I loved and really enjoyed going to their class and I also had terrible teacher that did nothing but watch Youtube all day. I can't say all the teachers were horrible because I had some truly amazing teachers that really cared about the students. However, there were a few bad eggs that the school refused to fire even though complaint after complaint was filled.
