While the school's spending per student has increased over the years, from $8,570 in 2018-2019 to $9,967 in 2020-2021, it still lags behind some nearby schools, such as Lillian Elementary ($11,975 per student) and Santa Fe Elementary ($11,677 per student). Addressing these disparities and providing targeted support to the school's diverse student population will be crucial for improving the overall educational experience and outcomes at Alvarado Intermediate.
