Alliance College-Ready Public Schools is one of the largest and most successful nonprofit public charter school networks in the nation, operating 26 high-performing, middle and high schools that educate nearly 13,000 scholars who make up the heart of Los Angeles' Latinx, Black, and recent immigrant communities. Alliance schools have been recognized as among the best in the nation by U.S. News & World Report, Newsweek, the U.S. Department of Education, and the California Department of Education. Since opening our first school in 2004, 95% of Alliance scholars have graduated from high school. We strive to uplift our scholars and their communities by fostering unparalleled educational opportunities that encourage scholarly thought, resilient learning, powerful communication, mind-body wellness, and community advocacy.
At Alliance, Science Teachers use local and global phenomena to spark curiosity in every scholar!
Our goal, as a science team, is to ensure all scholars can apply what they are learning in the classroom to real life and can advocate for change on scientific issues.
Teachers have access to NGSS-aligned curricula, such as Amplify Science in Middle School and Discovery Techbook, in High School to engage scholars using science and engineering practices so scholars are doing science.
During the year we offer learning opportunities in a variety of ways: formal PDs, embedded departmental and individual coaching, learning modules to collaborate with science teams across schools, and book clubs around culturally relevant STEM education.
