What if traditional schools are failing students by lecturing at them rather than learning alongside them?

Alpha Schools replaces conventional lectures and textbooks with AI-driven adaptive learning and mentorship at the student level. Learners advance at their own speed. Your role is to help them uncover their strengths, not to deliver pre-written lessons.

This position is designed for high achievers who want to apply that energy toward repairing a failing system. You will not be grading assignments or adhering to a fixed curriculum. Instead, you'll facilitate workshops, spark curiosity, and demonstrate that education becomes limitless when students take ownership of their learning.

Austin: A technology-driven city offering rich culture, abundant green spaces, and an exciting culinary landscape.
Fort Worth: A welcoming, family-centered community with rapidly expanding arts, dining, and business sectors.
