Magnet schools are established as centralized sites in our city, serving students from all Minneapolis communities. District and partner support for each school continues for curriculum development, implementation, and living their magnet themes through student learning opportunities. Our multi-level pathways include Arts, STEM/STEAM, and Dual Language. Students in all our magnet programs are supported through our community high schools through focused programming to continue their exploration.
Magnet thematic instruction and integrated opportunities rely upon well-trained staff and community partners. We work with Human Resources to extend early contracts for EL teachers and recruiting efforts to bring in highly qualified educators in all our programs. Our community partnerships to provide innovative learning include Children’s Theater Company, The Loppet Foundation, University of Minnesota, University of Wisconsin-River Falls, World Savyv, TaJu Educational Solutions, and the Minnesota Hispanic Bar Association.
Expanded magnet theme through professional associations, conferences with Magnet Schools of America and observations of neighboring magnet schools focused on Global Studies, Montessori, and STEM.
