What if conventional schools miss the mark by lecturing at students rather than learning alongside them?

Alpha Schools replaces traditional lectures and textbooks with AI-driven adaptive learning paired with peer-level mentorship. Students advance at a pace that suits them. Your role is to guide them toward discovering their unique strengths, not to deliver preset lesson plans.

This position calls for high achievers eager to direct that energy toward transforming a flawed system. You won't spend time grading assignments or adhering to rigid curricula. Instead, you'll facilitate workshops, spark curiosity, and demonstrate that learning becomes boundless when students take ownership of their education.

Phoenix: Over 300 days of sunshine annually and an outdoor-focused lifestyle, all at an accessible cost of living.
Austin: A thriving tech center featuring rich culture, abundant green areas, and a lively culinary landscape.
Fort Worth: A welcoming, family-centered city experiencing rapid growth in arts, dining, and commerce.
