Alien Hoops Academy & Sports Center
The Alien Hoops Academy & Sports Center is a groundbreaking youth development initiative combining a community school focused on academics and athletic development with an elite sports complex, providing children with the academic, athletic, and emotional support they need to thrive.
The Academy’s status as a charter school is the foundation of the entire project—ensuring academic excellence, long-term financial sustainability, and educational access for families across the Inland Empire.
At its core, Alien Hoops Academy is a tuition-free public charter school, serving 200–400 students with:
- Full-time academic instruction
- Credentialed teachers
- Individualized academic plans
- GPA monitoring & eligibility support
- Daily tutoring and homework labs
- Blended academic-athletic curriculum
- College-readiness pipelines
Charter status ensures:
- State-funded operational revenue
- Educational accountability
- Long-term sustainability
- Access to grants reserved for schools
- Free or reduced-cost education for local families
- Greater flexibility in curriculum and structure
This makes Alien Hoops Academy a powerful educational institution, not just a sports program.
A High-Impact Community Hub
Surrounding the charter school is the Alien Hoops Sports Center—open 7:30 AM to 11:00 PM, designed to provide:
- Safe after-school environments
- Community programs
- Youth sports
- Local events
- Life-skills and leadership development
- Health and wellness opportunities
- Positive alternatives to unsafe environments
This dual ecosystem builds a complete youth support system—academic + athletic + emotional + community connection.
