My overall experience with the Alvin Independent School District from the sports to the Academics and even the teachers has been fairly well. Although I feel that college readiness is lacking here, there are only one or two classes that get you ready for college. Such as Avid or National Merit. But if they were to put out more readiness classes such as how to apply for scholarships, what to look for in a college, and Tuition breakdowns then this school district would be a lot better.

I have been in Alvin Isd since my 7th grade year and there's always been some sort of security issue due to outsiders or even students in the school. So i don't feel the safest but everything else is pretty decent. The teachers are hit or miss some are there to help students but you can also tell some are only there for a check.
