My daughter enjoys every second of the law and government magnet. She genuinely enjoys learning from her magnet teachers and being around those who share her knowledge and interests. This is an excellent school and im glad to have transferred her from a charter school where she learned or understood almost nothing and now she learns with ease and excellence.

Definitely not one of the best schools in the USA as advertised, I took this into consideration when moving from Europe and enrolling my 15 year old, I can personally hand pick out 4 teachers who are good and really value their students, and the others are absolutely diabolical, there is a lot of communism praised in their history class, the fashion teacher is probably from another planet, a maths teacher that doesn't like the student knowing the answers, common core !!!!!! Dumbing down students with excellent potential totally unfair to the kids!!!! I have personally seen kids making out and tutors say nothing, disgusting in my opinion, a mother always wants the best for her child and I refuse to let anyone suppress their intelligence.Good luck when you think of enrolling here!!!!!

the councelor on this site Mr Martinez he is very incompetent and does no care for the children ... I personally talked to him and he said to me that .. he had a lot of children to look after and he didn't guarantee anything that it all depended on my child to follow up ... seriously ... this is why he gets payed but I will proceed all my needs to let the district now ...
