Alpha Public Schools is a network of four public charter schools committed to providing access to an outstanding education. Join us as we prepare students in TK-12th grade for success in college and career.
Who we are:
Alpha Public Schools is a public charter school network of four schools educating approximately 1,900 scholars in east San Jose. Guided by the belief that our students belong in college, we ensure safe, inclusive, and student-centered learning environments to help our students thrive. What sets us apart is the very thing that makes us who we are– our community. Alpha was founded by a group of mothers on the eastside of San Jose who sought better educational opportunities for their students. We maintain a strong connection to our community and engage families in a collaborative approach to offer a holistic education to our students.
A successful Alpha Teacher:
Alpha is committed to ensuring that every student is prepared to get to and through college. The AVID Teacher is tasked with equipping our students with the skills necessary to be successful in college, and supporting them as they build a college-going identity. This is an incredible opportunity for an educator who is passionate about supporting students on their journey to college.
The successful Alpha teacher believes that ALL students are capable of success. The successful Alpha teacher is excited to receive coaching and feedback, understanding that their growth as an educator is an ever-evolving process. We seek educators who are committed to amplifying and celebrating the diverse experiences and cultures of our scholars and their families; educators who are excited to be a member of a vibrant school community; and, educators who provide access to instruction for all students by responding to socio-emotional needs, supporting literacy development across all classes and content areas, using culturally responsive instructional strategies, and accommodating individual learning differences.
Alpha teachers are expected to:
- Adapt AVID curriculum to meet the needs of Alpha students, families, and staff
- Operate a classroom that includes sound classroom management practices and engaging lessons and that produces strong academic results.
- Maintain open lines of communication with staff, families, and the greater Alpha community
- Participate in regular and on-going professional development, observations, and feedback sessions
What we offer:
At Alpha we care deeply about our scholars and staff. To support our team (and hopefully you) we offer:
- Competitive salary commensurate with experience and credential status (as well as compounding retention incentives for returning Alpha teachers)
- See our 2024-25 Teacher Salary Scale Summary Sheet
- Health benefits plans for medical, vision, and dental insurance coverage for staff and their families
- Retirement matching options

- Generous paternity/maternity leave benefits including 4 weeks of paid parental leave in addition to the state and federal leave allowances
- Paid tuition for Induction and reimbursement for passing scores on credential required exams
- Employee Assistance Program that provides access to professional services for workplace, life, and wellbeing support and services

- Strong classroom management skills (or willingness to learn)
