At SEED LA, we go beyond the traditional classroom. As a STEAM-focused school in partnership with LA Metro, SEED LA is the first school of its kind to center its academic and career pathways on transportation, infrastructure, and engineering, preparing students to shape the future of Los Angeles and beyond.

SEED LA is proud to be a candidate school for the International Baccalaureate (IB), offering the **Middle Years Programme (MYP) for 9th and 10th graders and preparing to launch the Diploma Programme (DP) for 11th and 12th graders. Through the IB framework, we challenge students to think critically, act ethically, and engage globally. Our commitment to the whole child is also reflected in our status as a Valor Compass Camp School, where Restorative Justice, community circles, and social-emotional learning are embedded into daily practice. We believe that relationships are the foundation of learning, and we strive to build a school culture grounded in trust, empathy, and accountability. College-going is not just a goal at SEED LA—it’s a guarantee. From the moment students enter our doors, we cultivate a culture where college is an expectation for all. Our team is unwavering in our support of first-generation college-bound students and their families, providing a robust network of academic, emotional, and postsecondary supports to ensure every scholar is equipped for success in college and in life.

Science classrooms are focused on the most important content, and that content focus is coherently deepened from grade to grade and course to course.
