AI-Powered Alpha Schools Set to Open in Boston Area

The network will charge about $65,000 a year and enroll 25 to 40 students at each campus in its first year.

  • Alpha School is an AI-powered private school in the Boston area that costs up to $65,000 a year and produces AI-generated lesson plans that sometimes do more harm than good according to internal company documents.
  • The school has received positive media coverage from Fox News and The New York Times and was praised by Linda McMahon, former Education Secretary, for using generative AI to shape the future of education.
  • Employees have expressed concerns that some AI-generated questions do not meet SAT standards and fall short of the promised quality, as noted in the company's staff-accessible app.
  • Former employees report that heavy use of generative AI and surveillance of students' activities at Alpha School have caused student anxiety and may not deliver the advertised quality of education.
