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.

I have attend Alexandria schools since kindergarten. Since I have grown up surround by these people and this is such a small community, it has always been easy to feel included and make friends.

I absolutely loved my experience at Alexandria high school. The teachers were amazing and really cared about their students. They were always willing to help with anything we needed. I would like to see the school get more involved with the community. I think it would be great if the school held more events that involved the community.

Alexandria is a great school other than it mainly focuses on JUST sports. If you don't play some type of sport you just "one of those kids" who doesn't platy sports. This school needs major help.
