they made us go to school right after a tornado destroyed our house.

its no the worst school but I personally don't like going here...

This school has not given me a positive impression, which is disappointing as a parent. There seems to be a pattern of overly rigid policies and a lack of flexibility that doesn’t always reflect the realities families face. Communication around expectations and discipline has been unclear at times, making it difficult to understand how certain decisions are made. Some consequences feel disproportionate and not focused on guidance or redirection. I also don’t feel that students’ individual needs are always being accommodated. There appears to be a one-size-fits-all approach rather than taking into consideration different learning styles and behaviors. Overall, I would like to see a more supportive and reasonable approach. One that prioritizes clear communication, consistency, and a better balance between structure and understanding for students and families.

Our children are falling prey to the environment @AIS!! Many are being passed over & left behind with no care or concern from administration & teachers (not all the teachers). As a parent with legitimate concerns you should be able to contact the teachers and administrators to ask question, & voice concerns and to advocate for your child. NOPE, not at this school. We tried to from the first day to stress that we are involved parents and we want to have an open line of communication with all the teachers. They DO NOT want you involved or questioning what they are doing... EVER!! Addressing issues and concerns with the teachers isn't possible without scheduling a meeting and them making a full blown "production" out of it with all 3 teachers and 1-3 of the school administrators. Alvarado Intermediate does NOT openly welcome parents, they make you feel like you shouldn't be there unless it's on their terms. The LACK of communication from the campus is ridiculous! Rarely do you get ample notice for events, field trips or anything else. The Principal lacks the experience needed in both the class room and administrator role. When you bring forth concerns to her directly, she responds with a generic - almost memorized response that and has to true feeling and come off as "I hear you but could carless about what what you have to say, because it's my way or noway".If you want the best for your children and their education, while feeling welcome to be a part of it then Alvarado Intermediate Schools NOT for you!! This is by far the WORST school in the district!
