Overview

Alliance College-Ready Public Schools is a nonprofit network of tuition-free public charter middle and high schools serving Los Angeles communities. Its schools combine college-preparatory academics with support for students' social and emotional well-being, with a focus on Black and Latine students in historically underserved neighborhoods. The network emphasizes school autonomy, family and community partnerships, and an anti-racist, pro-Black approach intended to help students graduate ready for college while developing pride in their identities. Founded in 2004 by local educators, civil rights activists, and community leaders, Alliance is headquartered in Los Angeles, California.
