Alliance College-Ready Public Schools

As we celebrate 20 years of educational excellence, we look back at a key milestone in 2007-2008 when Alliance Patti and Peter Neuwirth Leadership Academy and Alliance Jack H. Skirball Middle School opened their doors. These schools have been pivotal in shaping the leaders of tomorrow through dedication to academic achievement and community building. Here's to many years of transforming lives and empowering the future! ???

Supporting our new teachers goes beyond innovation—it's about care, growth, and commitment. While change is essential, sometimes the most impactful work is in how we nurture our first-year teachers, helping them with self-care, classroom management, and lesson preparation. A huge thank you to Nicole Guillen, our Manager of Leadership Development, for bringing our vision to life through the New Teacher Professional Development (NTPD) program and to our guest co-facilitator Ariel Sierra, an amazing 9th grade ELA teacher from Alliance Morgan McKinzie High School, for her partnership. This year-long initiative provides a space for first and second-year teachers to connect, learn, and support one another. Rooted in self-care, NTPD also focuses on building skills aligned with the Alliance Core Rubric, ensuring equity and access for all students. By caring for our teachers, we are directly caring for our students. Together, we are building a strong foundation for future success. #TeacherSupport #ProfessionalDevelopment #NewTeachers #EducationMatters #SelfCareInEducation #EquityInEducation #OneAlliance
