Students asking questions in class. Hi Mr. Rosales, I am a student in West Anchorage High School. I am highly concerned about the current School Board's actions to implement the Academies of Anchorage. If elected, will you support the Academies of Anchorage? What actions will you take for or against the Academies of Anchorage? Hello Mr. Zhang! This is the best question of the campaign so far. I share your concerns about the school board adopting the Academies of Anchorage. I

In The Hot Seat With AlaskanRants Alexander Rosales with Alaskan Rants EXCLUSIVE! I sat down with Marcus Moore on Alaskan Rants  to tackle Anchorage School District’s chaos; waste, safety gaps, parents ignored. Below, I answer his 12 questions as a Dad, 20 Year Veteran, and teacher... not a politician. Watch the video HERE to hear it unedited and unscripted and all on the first take, then see why I’m running April 1st. I believe in transparency, it does not get much more tran

"Lunch Lady", Halloween 2022, Alpenglow Elementary Cafeteria Manager In the last 30 days since filing to run for school board, I have encountered more racism than at any other time in my life. Surprising, was the hate coming from elected officials and those running for office. No racism when working in the school district (Lunch Lady picture above). I did not know where it was all coming from all of a sudden. Sadly, it originated from someone I have invited over to my hous

As a candidate for the Anchorage School Board, I believe in fostering an open dialogue with our community, especially when it comes to critical issues like budget management, educational policy, and the welfare of our students and educators. I've been given the unique opportunity to respond to a series of questions for endorsements, and I want to share these responses directly with you, the families and teachers of Anchorage, to promote transparency and engagement. ...

Our campaign is powered by an extraordinary team from all walks of life, united to transform education in Anchorage. The vast majority include the parents and teachers that I have talked to in the past 5 years about the status of the district but unable to speak openly on their own. Powering the campaign, are 4 Alaskans. Each from completely different walks of life. There's no way I'd be set up for this campaign without their strength and dedication. Here's a closer look a

As a candidate for the Anchorage School District (ASD) School Board, I hope that my run for office is not too late. Especially with regards to the implementation of sanctuary policies for illegal immigrants. This policy comes at a time where resources are stretched thin in the district, teachers are crying out for help, and students are years behind.... The Superintendent's Stance Is Misguided and Dangerous to Students The stance taken by our superintendent does not align w

Dear Parents, Educators, and Community Members., Here is the data, alongside the insightful critiques from several Alaskans with skin in the game.

In this video, titled "Empowering Our Future," I outline my vision for our schools: Commitment to Excellence :  Education is not just about learning facts but about empowering our children to dream big, think critically, and lead with integrity.

I am running for Anchorage School Board because our district urgently needs strong leadership to address the financial mismanagement and lack of transparency that have persisted for too long. The Superintendent's message echos more of the same from the School District.

I am Alexander Rosales, a parent of two kiddos in the Anchorage School District... I'm here to oppose House Bill 69 and urge you to reconsider its passage for the sake of our kids' financial future. My stance is driven by the need for fiscal responsibility in the state and effective educational reform. We spend in the top 6 of the nation, yet our results are nearly last. Our district spends an astonishing $21,000 per student, which is already 59% of our overall spending. Howe
