Public School Choice with Purpose: The Magnet School Model

As debates over school choice intensify, magnet schools offer an evidence-based model for advancing access and innovation within the public system. This session examines how the nation's largest and most established form of public school choice is delivering on diversity and excellence. With themes ranging from STEM to early college, magnets are designed to integrate--not segregate--and provide high-quality options for families.
