And sure there some special cases with certain kids acting a certain way but what school doesn't have that. Fontana offers many sports to get students involved and hold high standards to both students and student athletes. Even though fohi itself is outdated the changes they undergo is new and diverse like the bleed maroon movement were many students began to have school spirit as well as many activates clubs and things to do. Sure some actives may not be fun or students dont participate but the School is still trying many things to get students involved more. The school has great staff and many counselors. Some people may say that the staff is terrible but each has their own way of teaching and students dont bother to ask the teacher but instead just blame them indicating that their teaching is bad also we have staff that help us and actually talk about what the real world is and not just going based on the standards they need to go but they also add things stuff that will be beneficial to your students life after high school but like all high schools there are staff who dont really care but still it doesn't give the student the right to just blame the staff member that's just how every school is but when you get to experience fohi and other schools you'll see that fohi has school spirit like none other and its a really great place however it does have its problems but like any other school they try their best to get around them and will continue to do so until it becomes the ideal school for anyone

Also, I got spoiled milk one time which was disgusting. In the cafeteria bathroom there is a stain on the wall that looks like feces. Lastly, a lot of the workers in the school are sexist because, first of all the girl's bathrooms is way cleaner than the boy's bathrooms I know because girl's have explained how clean it is to me before, second of all most of the time when girls ask to go somewhere or do something bad the teachers and security say nothing to them while they are literally staring at them but the SECOND a boy does it we get in trouble. The only reason I would stay is because of the main people in the office because they are nice and cool.

Had to come by for a meeting with one of the assistant principals over my kid…read more For the most part the meeting went well but one thing I absolutely can't stand is how everything is so darn secretive now. The schools want to tell the kids to correct actions without telling who the people are. If someone is masking what they're feeling and has someone thinking things are good how would you know what to do or how to handle situations. It makes absolutely no sense to me the way schools are required to handle situations. If students have problems with each other, it shouldn't be secretive. It should be brought to like to truly deal with it and ensure it gets resolved. If not, then there's not much I can do to help handle the situation!

Much of the focus seemed to be on themed dress-up days and surface-level activities, while instructional time often felt minimal or unfocused. Students were present, but meaningful academic learning did not seem to be the priority I expected from a public school. Teachers and staff appear to have stable, well-funded positions, yet the level of academic engagement and accountability for student outcomes felt low. It came across more like a day-care environment than a focused learning environment. I'm sharing this because families deserve transparency. If you're considering Alder Middle School, I strongly suggest asking clear questions about how instructional minutes are protected, how often students receive rigorous academic lessons, and how the school measures actual learning growth.
