And so we have known for, you know, 50 years of learning science research, the science of how people learn best, that one-to-one mastery-based tutoring allows

allows students to learn two, five, ten times faster than students who are sitting in a traditional time-based classroom where they're not learning the mastery.

And that was sort of the magic unlock that we have been able to create at our schools, which is that every single one of our students is able to get a one-to-one mastery-based tutoring experience that meets them at the exact same

level of knowledge that they need, and then takes them through the material at the pace that's right for them, constantly making sure that they are mastering that topic or concept before they move on.

And what we see in our schools is that our kids are learning twice as much, and they're doing it in only two hours a day of academic instruction.

That's two hours compared to, think about standard school, sitting in class for six hours.

Right.

And that's the kind of magic that's unlocked.

Yes, I can.

It's really interesting because when you think about what school looks like, you should take that and just throw it out the window when you walk into an alpha school.

Now, I will say our schools are full-day, in-person schools, right?

And I can tell you in this crazy world that we live in, the way that artificial intelligence is changing everything and creating new jobs and taking away jobs –

We have no idea what the world's going to look like in 10 or 20 years.

But here's what I absolutely will tell you.

I know this to be true.

In 10 or 20 years, no matter what the world is like, parents will still want to drop their children off during the day in a physical building surrounded by other kids and loving, caring adults.

That's going to hold true.

And so at Alpha, what we've done is we've created this school experience where parents

We really want to focus on kids loving school.

And the reason kids loving school is so important is because when kids love school, it allows us to help challenge them to do big, impossible, awesome things and go in.
