    Episode 2: Creed, Chaos, and Connection
    In Episode 2 of The ALC Underworld, Colt Lee dives into the backbone of every alternative school teacher: the ALC Teacher’s Creed. He breaks down why having your own code matters when the job asks for grit, patience, and showing up on the toughest days. This episode also drops a practical tactical tip you can use tomorrow and explores what it really means to build trust when chaos hits. If you’ve ever wondered how to stay steady—and human—in an unpredictable classroom, this one’s for you.

    Welcome to the ALC Underworld

    Step into the chaos, compassion, and controlled mayhem of the Alternative Learning Center—where the desks wobble, the drama’s daily, and hope shows up in steel-toed boots and sarcasm.

    In this first episode, Colt Lee (veteran, educator, and chaos coordinator) kicks off Holding the Line with stories from the front lines of the ALC—where teaching meets triage, and relationships are your best classroom management strategy.

    From flipped classrooms to ceiling-dwelling baby dolls, we dive into what it really takes to reach students who’ve been written off by the system—and why they’re worth every wild moment.
