...Or, join the team and help spread the word!

Alpha serves K-12 at risk students who have been temporarily removed from their base schools for severe or chronic behavior infractions. Currently, over 50% of our students are struggling readers. Many of them are as many as 3 or more grade levels below in their reading ability. As a result, it is extremely difficult to motivate students to actively particpate in lessons.

iPad apps such as Garage Band, Flipit, Educreations, and Toontastic would allow our students to experience learning in ways that speak to their individual learning styles. We have seen students who are completely disengaged come alive while using apps like Educreations to explain science concepts, allowing the teacher to get feedback of their grasp on the concept in a a non-threatening way.

Please help us reach our goal of 1 iPad per subject area!

Why I Teach: I became a teacher because I enjoy seeing the look of excitement on a child's face when they realize they have discovered something new.
