Traditional schools often teach at students rather than alongside them—can this approach truly meet their needs?

Alpha Schools replaces conventional lectures and textbooks with AI-driven adaptive learning paired with peer-level mentorship. Each student advances at their own speed. Your role is to guide them in uncovering their strengths, not to deliver pre-written lesson plans.

This position is designed for high performers seeking to direct that energy toward transforming a failing system. You won't be grading assignments or adhering to a fixed curriculum. Instead, you'll facilitate workshops, spark curiosity, and demonstrate that when students take ownership of their learning, boundaries disappear.

Phoenix: Over 300 sunny days annually and an outdoor-focused lifestyle with affordable cost of living.
Austin: A thriving tech center featuring rich culture, abundant green spaces, and a diverse culinary landscape.
Fort Worth: A welcoming, family-centered city experiencing rapid growth in arts, dining, and commerce.
