Alvin High School is not safe. It values the reputation of it employees over the safety, health, and well being of its students, especially if they are female. Please reconsider sending your children to this school. They will lie, shame, and blame you if something happens to your child on their campus. As a former student I can tell you first hand that this is NOT a place you want to send your children.

No son honestos.
Trabajan para su propio bienestar y no por los de los estudiantes.
Le pedimos ayuda alos directivos y siempre dicen NO SE PUEDE HACER NADA POR NADIE.

Muchas Gangas trabajando adentro de la escuela.
Golpiaron a mi hija adentro de la escuela,cayo en cirujia y el Director LeRoy Castro y el Director Briceño no hacen nada.Ni siquiera ordeno que la arrestaran cuando firme la demanda,Briceño apoya la delincuencia adentro de Alvin High-school. (Porque cuando tu no denuncias,esto quiere decir que lo apoyas)
No hacen registros cuando hay peleas.
La Ganga Crips muve todo adentro de la escuela y a Briceño no le importa.

I have two children graduate from Alvin High School. Both of them completed several of the excellent AP courses offered there, so I'm talking about the "smart kid" track. The oldest received a significant scholarship to the University of Texas at Dallas (not a bad school) and was well prepared for college. He didn't miss a beat, and was able to hang on to his great scholarship through his freshman year, when many students struggle to maintain the high GPA necessary to keep it. My youngest son is taking even more advantage of the AP and Dual Credit programs. He is already accepted to an honors college at UT/Austin. He has had excellent teachers at the highest levels - AP English, Chemistry, Calculus, and History. He has succeeded (4+) on every AP exam, which is a testament to the level of teaching here. All of this, and he gets to play sports too. Alvin High has been very good to him and to his parents. Kevon Wells was one of those great principals, and I hated to see him get kicked upstairs, but that's life in any institution.
