Happy Magnet School Month!

​February is #MagnetSchoolMonth! Magnet schools offer high quality, rigorous, and specialized programs, to inspire students from all walks of life and prepare them for college and the workforce.

Did you know that there are approximately 4,340 magnet schools in the U.S., serving nearly 3.5million students?

Since the 1970s, diversity has been a cornerstone of magnet schools, by prioritizing equity and access for every student. These schools attract a diverse student population with advanced studies in STEM topics, the arts, language immersion, and more. 

Magnet teachers and staff create a dynamic environment of teamwork, acceptance, innovation, and engagement to develop the talents of our diverse student population.

Magnet schools prepare students for future careers and successful community engagement by fostering interaction with peers from all backgrounds, as well as providing hands-on experience working with businesses, cultural institutions, universities, and community organizations. 

At BRCVPA we are proud to be a part of the Magnet Schools of America! We will be sharing many features of our visual and performing arts magnet program this month, so stay tuned!
