ALPHA Program

If a man does not keep pace with his companion, perhaps it is because he hears a different drummer/ Let him step to the music, which he hears, however measured or far away.
- Henry David Thoreau

Welcome to ALPHA

Administrator's Message:  Welcome to the ALPHA Program web site. As you explore this site, we hope to provide you with a better understanding of the learning opportunities offered in the Alternative High School Program. While ALPHA is an alternative to the traditional high school experience, students attending ALPHA must meet the same graduation requirements as all the students in the Stratford School System. The staff members of the ALPHA Program are a dedicated group of individuals who have requested an opportunity to work with a student population that has elected to attend our program.

We welcome you to explore this site and learn about what ALPHA has to offer the students of Stratford. Please feel free to call with questions about our program or to arrange a visit.

ALPHA Mission Statement:  The Stratford School System recognizes that not all students can adjust to the traditional high school. ALPHA provides an educational alternative for this population.

Our mission is to provide the opportunity and support for all students to acquire skills, academic and social, necessary to become responsible, contributing citizens.
