  • I attend alto high school. I love how it is close like family. I am not saying that it is the best school to send your kid, but every school has rules. As far as the education, athletics, and UIL they are some of the highest around. Alto has some of the best teachers anyone could ask for. Coach Wes King, Mrs. Whitney Reid, and Mrs. Pamela Taylor are just a few of the premative teachers at Alto. I have gone to school in Alto my whole life and it has been ups and downs, but thats at every school...right? Alto High School!
