    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.

    • Collaborate with families, special education teachers, and general education teachers to ensure psychoeducational reports present a holistic picture of student needs
    • Serve as the gate-keeper of special education referrals, and make decisions on which intervention path is best for individual students
    • Engage with families around the special education pre-referral and referral process, as well as effectively articulate decisions that are made based on evaluations

    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. The start rate for this role is $87,776 and goes up based on experience.
