Strive for excellence and equity.

Are you passionate about ensuring that all students get an excellent education? Alpha teachers and staff are committed to helping all learners achieve academic excellence, from high performers to English Language Learners and students with special needs. Alpha celebrates people from a diverse background, especially those who can relate to the challenges and strengths of our students. Your commitment to equity inspires your students to believe in themselves and feel excited about the opportunities that open up with an excellent education.

Family Engagement Focused.

Everyone at Alpha wants to grow and improve. This healthy growth mindset fuels a can-do attitude and a sense of shared excitement when milestones are met. You’ll be working with a team that’s as passionate as you are about engaging with families, from tracking progress to working together to unlock your student’s success. Parent volunteers also help raise money for events and field trips and participate in community meetings. Alpha’s strong feeling of community comes from teachers working closely with -and being supported by- engaged families.

Want to See Results.

Are you passionate about using your skills to transform lives? Does the idea of making a bold, positive impact excite you? Do you believe in the power of education? Do you want to do what you do best, while being supported by a talented team? Then you may be one of us. Everyone at Alpha is deeply committed to empowering our scholars with the tools and education they need to succeed in college. Everything we do is centered around helping our scholars thrive so new generations can access a better life.

Teacher Residency.

Based on research from other groundbreaking teacher residency models, Alpha’s teacher residency gradually prepares you for an exceptional teaching career and eliminates barriers to entering the teaching profession. You’ll get hands-on classroom experience under the supervision of a lead teacher while completing your credentials. Over the next 2 years your responsibilities will gradually grow until you complete the residency as a fully certified teacher. You’re paid benefits and salary throughout.

But we also believe in innovation and growth. That’s why we regularly seek out input and share ideas. Together we’re making a great foundation even better.

“My first year, parents broke down in tears (of joy!) during their first IEP meeting with us. They were blown away that their daughter had learned more in 6 months at Alpha than she had in the last 3 years of schooling combined.”

Russ MichaudDirector of Special Education, Alpha Network Team

“From the moment I step onto campus in the morning, I feel a joy for learning coming from our young people- and it’s contagious!”
