Los
Angeles Magnet Advantages
Magnet schools give students the opportunity to explore a specialized
learning environment to share their experience with other students who
have similar goals. Class sizes in magnet schools tend to be smaller than
average. This allows a greater degree of student to teacher interaction.
Students who choose to attend a magnet school must submit an application.
The next application period will be in February.
The Magnet School combines
advantages of a small school with those of a large school.
