Imagine sending your daughter to a school that seems tailor-made to fit her fascination with music or science. Imagine finding a school for your son that sparks his curiosity about medicine or art. Imagine an entire school centered around one big theme – a theme that is used as a “hook” to help teach students about every subject. More than 4,000 of these unique schools exist, all across the U.S. And guess what? They’re not elite private schools. They’re FREE public schools. These are public magnet schools!

Can anyone attend a magnet school? Students are rarely, if ever, automatically assigned to magnet schools. Instead, families can choose to apply to a magnet school and, if accepted, attend it rather than their zoned school or the school nearest them. You can find out if your state has magnet schools here: https://schoolchoiceweek.com/public-m....

How do you get into a magnet school? Sometimes, magnet schools are so popular that they rely on randomized lotteries to determine acceptance. If this is the case for a magnet school you’re interested in, you can submit an application to the school before its deadline. Then, you will be notified if there is space and your child has been accepted. Families with siblings already attending the school may be prioritized. In addition, some magnet schools may have eligibility requirements. For instance, a magnet school with a music focus may require students to audition.

Why magnet school? Magnet schools provide an exciting opportunity for kids to learn in a place where they’re immersed in a subject they love!
