GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

I have been coming to Alta loma since I was a freshman. This is by far the best school there is, in my biast opinion of course, Over the 3 years I have been here I have had my fare share of ups and downs but I know that anytime I needed help it was offered to me. If I needed someone to talk to there are so many resources for me. Or if I need help in my classes I can go to the library almost everyday where they have tutoring. This school wants you to do your best and become the best you can be.

I would like to see more sports involvement from the supportive aspect. I love the academics aside from a few teachers.

I have had some amazing experiences here at Alta Loma High School. I have met some amazing people that have impacted my life in ways I have never imagined possible. One of these was my junior year history teacher. He helped me always believe in myself and to set my standards high.

Teachers at ALHS are great, they are many opportunities for the diversity of students to get ahead. Reality is......students some times have other interests that take away their attention. I love the fact that if grades are not good, there is no sport involvement. This encouraged my son to stay focu...
