THE SCHOOL IS…
a public charter school offering a new model of academic rigor and college preparation in East Los Angeles. The school’s founders believe that all students, regardless of race, socioeconomic class, or country of origin, can achieve at high levels when they have access to high-quality K-12 education.
This school's mission is to prepare all students in grades 9 through 12 for success in four-year colleges, professional careers, leadership in their communities, and lives of opportunity.
This is an excellent opportunity for a teacher with very high expectations for student achievement, who is passionate about molding students as strong readers and critical thinkers, and who wants to positively impact an historically underserved community by helping first-generation college-going students develop the skills and knowledge they need to prepare for success at the 4-year colleges of their choice.
