My daughter attended ALA since 2021 after relocating to Pinal county I must say this has been the worst school experience. I strongly agree with the other review someone posted stating this school is ran like a business. 1st communication is HORRIBLE. Last school year was the icing on the cake. My daughter's class went through 3 different 5th grade teachers. Students behaviors were out of control and a lot of the students regressed academically. When they finally got teacher #3 mid year it was difficult to communicate with her. I sometimes copied the principal and assistant principal on my emails to her and still sometimes NO ONE would respond not even the principals. There were incidents that would happen involving my daughter and another student and I would receive no notification about it until my daughter told me. This other student my daughter had a number of incidents with and this student didn't only have issues with my daughter she had issues with a number of other students in the class but the school never did their part to remove the problem student. Another thing I've noticed is the teachers my daughter had over the years are parents of multiple children of their own who don't seem to have a lot of time for anything else outside of their teaching hours. One time I had a teacher rush through an after school phone conference because she had to take her child somewhere. One teacher had really bad attendance due to always having sick children, one teacher told me she couldn't do ANY conferences after her working hours ended at 3:30pm. Just no flexibility for being a full time working parent myself. Their testing methods here have changed recently and it's a very inconvenient process now. All tests and quizzes are done on Chromebooks in class so once a test is completed my daughter never got to see it graded to know what topics she wasn't grasping or where she needed to improve. They just got a grade. I was told there is no way to get testing results. Another example of this place being ran like a business without the parents or students in mind. Another thing is I have NEVER known a school to investigate an incident, interrogate and discipline a child THEN notify the parents after everything is said and done (IF/when they decide to notify you). My husband has tried to arrange time to come to the school to speak with all parties involved after a incident and see camera footage but apparently they don't allow that and any time you want to come in to speak with the principal about anything you have to schedule a appointment. Again sounds like a business My daughter has described some horrible school lunches from here and she is not a picky eater. Don't rely on the lunch menu calendar either because it's a 50% chance they'll serve something different or run out of what they were supposed to serve. No veggie options either. The after school program sucks. It's just as dysfunctional and ghetto trying to get in the building after hours with no one answering the door. Very little supervision, no structure. As a result we decided to move my daughter to ride the bus after school. I will say the bus driver staffing has gotten a lot better over the last school year but just know there are times you will receive a text notification stating your child's bus route is canceled for the day if there is no sub driver available. School events are chaotic and dysfunctional. This is a small campus with an overcrowded amount of kids so overcrowded that the entire 6th grade has moved to the high school. (My daughter's class had between 30-35 students). Every event is over crowded with no type of organization as to what's going on. Oh and by the way it is out of their dress code violation for any male student to have long hair which I find very sexiest and a form of discrimination.. so glad my son won't have to go through this!

One teacher told me she rather jump off a cliff than teach my class. Said teacher would growl at students and bark. One amazing teacher was Mrs. Gatzke, and she inspired many students, including me.
