7th Grade Parents and Students
Please be aware that magnet applications for high school are based on grades, attendance, and discipline records from the second semester of the 7th grade school year. Although we expect students to always do their best, students who are thinking of applying at a magnet high school should be mindful that this is a very important year for their high school acceptance in the future.
