Thank you for visiting the Miguel Contreras School of Social Justice website! SJ strives to create a community of learners using a caring and personalized approach. Our curriculum centers topics of human rights and social justice to accomplish our mission to Educate, Organize, Advocate. We are excited to return to in-person learning for the 2021-22 academic year. Please check out this webpage filled with resources provided by LAUSD to ensure a safe and successful transition from distance learning to in-person learning. I am proud to say that I have been a member of the SJ team for nearly 20 years, including four at Belmont High School (where I was a founding lead teacher), and the last 15 at Contreras LC.
