This school is AWEFULL. Not many teachers here are bad but some... gotta go. as a student who was attending here for 2+ years I wanna say that the average 8th grader will get bombarded with 14 assignments a week and the bullying here never gets solved and there is a lot of homosexual students here (not trying to seem homophobic) but still though I used to get bullied here a lot and I barely get listened to unless if my parents storm the office and just earlier as I said. I NEVER HAVE FREE TIME THANKS TO ASIGNMENTS. and I stay up till 11 and wake up at 4 just so my work can get ignored. so, for now on Ima just fail the classes I hate on purpose and will think of moving out of Fontana schools when I go to high school.So, if you're a parent or student. and are okay with frequent bullying and some homosexual couples making out in public and the agenda rules not being enforced properly then go for it?

Overall this school isn’t all that bad. It has a variety of classes (both AP and regular), clubs, opportunities, events etc. but it is ruined by the students and the teachers who don’t even try to regulate them that well or at all. I cannot go a single day without hearing something racist, ableist, homophobic, sexist/misogynistic, etc. The students constantly say slurs every time they open their mouths, either “jokingly” to their friends, reaction to a situation, and/or talking about someone else. The conversations I overhear from them talking (or basically announcing to the entire room) are so incredibly hateful and disgusting, and it’s terrible to think how they are going to be when they are older. They are disrespectful to the teachers and others around them who want to learn and pass the class. Besides that, the teachers have to be the greatest bystanders/enablers of all time, they do absolutely nothing to stop or even criticize the behavior of the student's at this school. They think a student saying slurs is equivalent to them cussing and at most say “language!” when they do, which I don’t think I need to point out how incredibly useless that is. They are supposed to be the authority figures and set students on the right path both academically and behavioral. Them ignoring and not criticizing their hateful and violent beliefs/morals, spreads and affects everyone around them. I understand there are limited options as how they’re so many students like this that are very stuck in this type of thinking but at least try. I know this was long - but I tried to give details on the experience I’ve had at this school so far.

The lack of of academics at Almond is very disappointing, as you can see test scores are very low including the twisting of the school being a 1/10. This school should really improve in all categories for there students.
