Alliance College-Ready Middle Academy 8

Alliance College-Ready Middle Academy 8 sits in East LA, a neighborhood with deep roots and a strong sense of community pride, where families are increasingly looking for school options that go beyond the traditional district path. As a charter school with a college-prep focus, it's built for families who want their middle schoolers thinking about future opportunities early — even if the academic profile sits right around the state middle. It's a reasonable choice for parents in the 90063 zip code who value the charter structure and college-readiness mission and want an alternative to their neighborhood zoned school.
