Great school. Great teachers. Great selection of classes. Needs more clubs.
Alma has a wide variety of after school activities and students are encouraged to become involved. Theteachers are more than happy to lend a hand, however most students do not optimize this resource. Administration is weak and sometimes hinders student creativity and involvement. Overall, a great school district with great activities and great teachers.
The administration is not what it should be and could use some work. Alma does have a very wide range of extra curricular activities. Money for these activities would be used better if it were more even, instead of mainly on football. There are so many activities that do much better than football and get small limelight. The teachers, however, are what make this school great and worth going to. Because of them the education is outstanding.
I feel there needs to be more parent, student, teacher communication. It seems to be a common practice in the Alma school area that if your student is a slow learner, they don't seem to take the time to help them out as needed. Perhaps the teachers have to many students and not enough time. However, meanwhile it is the slower learning students that get pushed through the school system by barely passing grades instead of getting the instruction they are sent to school for.
School Administration has a difficult time dealing with student behavior problems.
Overall, teachers are wonderful. Administration could use a lot of work.
