We are thrilled for our children to be able to partake of the advantage of attending Alto School. The entire staff takes an interest in each student. Each students' academic level is evaluated. If they need help, they get it. If they are ahead of the game, they are given more challenging work. They are motivated to do their personal best. 'Personal best' is one of the most applied phrases at Alto. The music curriculum encourages creative thinking through activities that involve movement and drawing. Bullying is almost obsolete at Alto. I have spent time on the playgrounds, in the classrooms, in the hallways, and lunchroom and have not witnessed any bullying. Being kind and helping others is reinforced from kindergarten on up. Most teachers and staff spend abundant hours of their personal time at school each week preparing for the next days lessons. We love Alto!

I attended this school and through the rest of my schooling was far advanced in all areas. When I went into Middle School I was ahead of many of the other students who had attended other elementaries. I still go back to visit the teachers and keep in contact with those who have retired. I can't save enough about how great this school is!- past sudent age 25
