6/15/2025
Alcovy High School is an okay school. They are nasty and rarely clean. There is never any paper towels or toilet paper. But they do have many cool organizations and sports. They also give out chick fil a biscuits.
8/18/2024
The school offers various academic programs, extracurricular activities, and support services to help students succeed.
7/25/2024
Overall my experience at Alcovy High School is, mainly the school is a nice place and you can make nice and helpful friends. But most of the time the school is very unhelpful when it comes to figuring out things to know and it being a very large school newer students can get lost.
GreatSchools Reviews
3/18/2026
Terribly rude administration. Disrespectful, no better than a student.
3/8/2026
It was difficult transitioning my child to public school from private school but the teachers and administrators have been so supportive. The staff really care about students and the administrators are really doing their best to make Alcovy High a great place for everyone.
5/9/2025
Horrible school. Students run the place with little discipline or accountability. Administration either has not clue about what they are doing or is focused on the wrong things. No learning going on except for students who are totally self-motivated. Needs to be shut down.
11/4/2024
Fights everyday, gun threats every other week, teachers have no respect for students, very unsafe and unprofessional learning environment. Your child will not be safe at this school.
