  • I'm glad that I went to this elementary. At the time I was there, it was a blue ribbon school and the principal was Mrs. Dorthy. Teachers had high expectations and it was quite diverse. Lots of asians, as wells as caucasions and african americans. Cafeteria food was awesome! Students were encouraged to read, and do their best and in the end, we often were rewarded for our efforts. I did the pledge and announcements when I was in the 5th grade on air; in the media room, I was in the safetly patrol, and I participated in spelling bees. Looking back, Alba Elem really help to set my standards high.
