What are the responsibilities and job description for the 9th Grade Algebra I Teacher position at The SEED School of Los Angeles County?
The SEED School of Los Angeles County is looking for an Algebra I Teacher to join its team. The Algebra I Teacher will cultivate a rigorous, instructional culture that aims to build mathematically proficient scholars to meet the demands of college and career and apply mathematics in the real world. In our mathematics classrooms, scholars do the thinking and engage in productive struggle and work to persevere through real-world problems. Scholars do the bulk of the work (both thinking and talking) and actively participate in mathematics conversations, resulting in scholars thinking and communicating like mathematicians, taking risks and challenging misconceptions. Scholars learn the hows and whys of math and are engaged in deep learning that builds on what they already know, and how it applies to the world around them.

"Empowering Scholars. Elevating Communities. Engineering the Future."
The SEED School of Los Angeles County (SEED LA) is a college-preparatory, tuition-free, five-day-a-week public boarding school committed to transforming the lives of low-income students who need—and deserve—a caring, rigorous, and inclusive environment where they can thrive and realize their full potential.
Rooted in the groundbreaking vision of The SEED Foundation, SEED LA joins a nationally recognized network of public college-prep boarding schools that serve students who benefit from a 24-hour learning environment. Established in 1998, The SEED Foundation launched the nation’s first public boarding school model, grounded in the belief that all young people, regardless of circumstance, should have access to a high-quality education and the opportunity to pursue their dreams.
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. We nurture both the scholar and the citizen, inspiring students to pursue not only academic excellence but also purpose-driven lives.
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.
