JOB DESCRIPTION
Physical Education Coach
At Alternatives in Action (AIA) we believe young people are powerful. In our schools, we see young people
striving for more voice, more connection, more ownership, and more meaningful ways to make a difference - for
their own future and their communities. Because we believe in the power and promise of young people, we inspire
them, support them, and create opportunities for young people to make a real difference. As our youth practice
cascading leadership, take meaningful action, and build real relationships with adult allies & peers, they
experience empowerment that will help them shape a secure future for themselves, their families, and their
communities.

supporting youth who have been unsuccessful in traditional learning environments and are looking for a small,
relationship-based alternative. Serving 160 youth, AIAHS supports youth to be college, career and community
ready through project-based learning and youth-adult partnerships. We believe that all youth are wise,
resourceful, and capable of making positive changes in their own lives and in the community. Our teaching staff
