Preschool Program Coordinator, Alpha - $150,000/year USD
About the role
Alpha School students, on average, experience 2.4 to 2.6 times the academic growth of traditional school students (Forbes). Alpha reimagines the school day around faster learning, stronger mentorship, and more time for students to build real‑world skills. The PreK program blends play‑based curriculum design with real‑time developmental data — no rigid lesson scripts, no compliance checklists. In this hands‑on leadership role you will design adaptive learning themes across every readiness domain, coach a team of Guides to deliver them with precision and joy, and track measurable milestone progress for each child. You will spend roughly a third of your time in classrooms modeling facilitation, observing sessions, and running calibration reviews; the remainder is spent designing curriculum, coaching Guides with specific, measurable goals, and keeping families informed with evidence‑based updates. The impact is visible: four‑year‑olds hitting developmental milestones faster, Guides improving their quality scores week over week, and parents becoming advocates.
