6/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageOnly 3 AP classes offered. The new counselor didn't even know how to submit transcripts to colleges and didn't care to find out, because they assume everyone will go to Sul Ross. Sports and Band are the main focus of the school.Parent Review9y ago - Alpine Middle School

6/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageThis school is terrible. Overall it’s just terrible. The teachers here range from good to just downright bad. There’s a bullying problem nobody talks about. There’s communication issues which are so bad that we actually found out about an activity we were supposed to do MINUTES before it happened. Overall this school did a poor job at what it was supposed to do and I definitely feel the need for change.Student Review5y ago

"I have lived in Alpine for 15 years and worked here for 8. It is a diverse community that offers a lot of resources for its small size: hospital, university, good private and public schools, lots of nature based recreation with 1/3 of Texas' public open space within 1 1/2 hr drive. Clean air. Dark nights good for astronomy. "
