Expect more. Achieve more. Reach your potential at Alpha.

data based instruction with supportive relationships and habits of leadership.

Alpha Public Schools was formed in response to a group of parents in East San José who wanted better options for their children. Intent on creating a high-quality public middle school, in 2010 these activist mothers approached John Glover. At the time he was a leader and former teacher in a high-performing charter network in Oakland. They convinced him to help them found a public charter school, one that would help their children acquire the academic skills they needed to go to college and thrive.

Everyone has a unique set of strengths and preferred ways to learn.

We advocate for all scholars in our community, including scholars with disabilities. We will work as an IEP team to ensure that you have all the support you need to be successful in your academic, social/emotional, communication, and behavioral endeavors. We support scholars across a wide range of disabilities, and can help you to reach your potential.

Alpha also provides any related service that is listed on the IEP; eligibility for these services are determined through the Initial Evaluation, a Triennial Review, or as a singular assessment for the specific area. If you believe your child requires any of these related services, you should bring this concern to your child’s Special Education Teacher. Examples of related services are:

Speech Therapy
Adapted Physical Education
Mental Health Counseling
Occupational Therapy
Transition Services
Orientation and Mobility Instruction
Vision Services
Extended School year
Health and Nursing Services
Transportation Services
