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've enjoyed my time here. I love the small town school and how much the teachers care. I feel like that is a bit lost when you go to larger schools with a high student population.

Alvord High School is a good school that creates a safe environment for students and faculty. Like many schools in the U. S. Alvord lacks adequate funding across all areas of academia and extra curricular activities. Due to this there are not enough programs offered.

What makes Alvord very unique is how the community comes together as whole to help anyone who needs it.

Concerned that the administration fired the Physical Therapist for having a relationship with the senior but didn't contact authorities as they are required to by law. Very concerning that this small school covers for inappropriate behavior.
