Carl Albert High School

They are not military friendly the treat recruiters like dirtbut have no problem hiring "pedos" to teach their kids. CA is over rated and a joke!

As a former student of CA, I look back on my high school experience as nothing particularly good or bad. Sports seemed to garner a majority of the attention, effectively quashing any other extracurriculars. This left me feeling a bit short-changed, given that I was not an athlete, and that I knew other schools had many more options and opportunities outside the athletic realm.

Great for Sports. They are not all about that. Teachers want all to succeed. Like every school Jocks and Cheerleaders get much favorable treatment.

Only send your kids here if they are jocks, or cheerleaders, or 4,0 GPA. if they do not have these qualities then this the wrong school for them. Carl Albert is to best put a name on it "a prep school". It caters to those that made the winning touchdown in football game, or the one that made cheer captain. This school cares nothing about it's musical department, or its academics (unless you are a strait A student). Do not waste your time with this school, FIND ANOTHER !

I attended CAHS since my sophomore year and I love it. I do feel, however, that the faculty does focus a bit too much on athletics rather than general education and fine arts.

I have seen my 3 children graduate from Carl Albert. It was always an excellent school with heavy emphasis on academics. My children were not into sports but that did not matter in the least. Through the years I have seen Mrs. Kirk evolve from head of the history department to vice-principal to principal. She has always been excellent at whatever job she has done, strict but flexible. I also had a few foster kids go through the school with problems that were unique to their situation and I have always found a willing ear in Mrs. Kirk whenever I needed to get advice on how to handle their problems.

Most of the teachers are great at their jobs. If your child does not play a sport, they will be treated differently than the those who do play.

Parents on here talk of 'focus on only athletics', and 'other students on here have bad grammar', but what they fail to take into consideration when writing their reveiw, is that they themselves have never truly experienced CAHS. Carl Albert truthfully is far from meeting the standards of schools such as Edmond North, or Putnam City North, but for this area, there is no better choice! The school size is just right- it's easy to get to know majority of the school. Plus, in the two years that I've attended CAHS, it gets better and more involved every year. I think Carl Albert is a great school compared to Midwest City or Del City, so if you live in the district, theres no doubt that it is your best bet!

Its pretty cool! The other students are fun, the teachers are boring and don't understand kids but their good as far as teaching goes.
