"Big waste of my time and money! the education honestly is not that great and they give too many regular courses in which other schools encourage you to take Honors and AP . This school is the opposite of college prep and is a waste i will never send one of my kids there ever again !"

"I am a student at AMHS and this is my senior year. The teachers themselves are nice, and most of them the student will like, but some of them are awful. I have talked to my friends that left for other schools and there seems to be no difference. The school has a major effciency problem. Several seniors, including myself, have had trouble getting the school to send out our transcripts to colleges. We have to be constantly harrassing the guidance department. It's all about the money at that school. The student center has awful food most of the time, whether in taste, quality, or health, and it's overpriced. A salad and bottled water costs around seven dollars. Parents be warned, even if you do your service hours you may still be billed the $250 like mine were!! (Lots of potheads too!!)"

"I have two kids at AMHS and they love the school and their teachers. I'm glad when I pick them up at the school and they smile at you saying 'I love my school' or 'I had a great day' It's all worth it; the money is well spend."

"It's my junior year and i have to say that this is one of the best high schools I've ever known. The teachers push you to do above and beyond anything you ever thought you could do. The academics are top-notch and the courses are designated so that you take the challenging courses, the ones that colleges look at the most. They truly prepare you for college-level academics with AP courses available from sophomore year. All in all I would definitely recommend this school to anyone looking for a school that prepares their child for college."
