As a former student, I can only say that this school has only gotten worse through the years. The staff ranges from competent to mediocre in most cases. The administration and staff have demonstrated that their priorities are not student-centered. They take the path of least resistance in anything
... Read more they do. There is little to no consistency in their curriculum and the school board members could care less about the quality of education the students receive. There is no motivation or incentive. The students dangle on a dangerous precipice because there is no structure or guidance. Today's generation is completely self-serving and this school is a clear example of that. Read less

I have 2 children that attend Antonito High and have not had any problems. They are both doing very well and always have.

I feel that Antonito High School is an excellent place for learning. The staff is friendly, and the teachers are wonderful. They give help whenever it is needed. For example our school honored a Boetcher Scholar last year, and several regional Science Fair placers, and one that won a trip to Houston,

Here at Antonito High School this is the place to start your child's schooling. This school offers many academic awards for everyone, brown, white, or colored.

This school needs to be closed! There has only been a handful (literally) of good teachers/principals to work there since the 70's! Yes there are the occasional bright stars that shine but they shine with no credit, what so ever, to the school system. The academic, sports, & any other extracurricular
... Read more activities are dreadfully put together. I'll give them an 'E' for effort and that is IT! Our younger generation deserves a more advanced learning establishment than Antonito Jr./Sr. High School. A lot of raw talent slips through our finger tips each and every day this school stays open. Send your children to La Jara or, even better yet, Alamosa. Antonito Jr./Sr. High School typically produces victimized adults due to the lack of proper education, lack of parental involvement, and teacher/principal supervision. A waste of the community s taxes! Thank You. Read less

I rate this school a 4 because I have had four of my children go here and they have taken advantage of all of the opportunities that this school has to offer. They have taken all the extracurriculars from music, sports, knowledge bowl, FBLA, academic decathlon and college classes their junior and senior

The best thing about Antonito is that it is a community school that does not take away the dignity of the student and enhances the ethnic quality that can contribute positively to this country without the student growing into a victimized adult.
