He has earned a bachelor’s degree in history from St. Mary’s University and a master’s degree in Educational Leadership from Concordia University in Austin.
Mr. Alicea is beginning his 20th year with the district and is also a product of Northside having attended Zachary MS and graduating from Taft HS. He began his career at Jones MS serving as a department coordinator as well as coaching boys' sports. Mr. Alicea was honored to be part of the opening staff of Vale MS and has also served as an assistant principal for both Alternative Middle and High Schools.
He has four children with the oldest having recently graduated from the Science and Engineering Academy and the other three all attending Northside schools. Mr. Alicea feels that this is a homecoming of sorts being a ‘93 graduate of Taft HS. His mission is to provide all the support, encouragement, and help possible to ensure that every student has the opportunity for success not only at Communications Arts HS but in their next steps into a larger world.
