Certificated Personnel



Thank you for your interest in applying for a certificated position with the Santa Monica-Malibu Unified School District. We value all of our interested applicants highly and hope to provide you with the best support and service in this endeavor. All applications are being advertised and accepted through EdJoin.  No paper applications will be accepted.  To see a list of open positions and to apply, please go to

Please be aware that Federal Legislation, the “No Child Left Behind Act of 2001,” requires that all public school districts hire teachers who are identified as “Highly Qualified.” It is our goal to only hire teachers who are NCLB highly qualified and who have a CLAD or BCLAD certificate. While it’s been a long standard practice by SMMUSD to employ those teachers who are highly talented and leaders in their field, the employment process has become even more competitive. We are committed to hiring the best instructors for our students!  Thank you again for your interest.

Michael D. Matthews, Ed.D.
Assistant Superintendent, Human Resources

We want to work with all staff over the next 18 months so that every teacher has a CLAD certificate by June 30, 2009. Email Lisa Andersen with questions.
