Partnerships and Special Programs

In our effort to provide all our students with a rich and well-rounded education, our school has in place various programs that aim to reach the minds of all learners.

Among the various outstanding programs our school offers are:

  • Gifted Arts & Technology Magnet Center for grades 2-5 (one class per grade)
     
  • Gifted students are clustered in every grade for differentiated instruction. 
 
  • All people have unique talent and different ways of thinking and visualizing solutions from others. LA Makerspace is a way to celebrate this together as a community. The “Maker” education style is a project-based and confidence-building way to learn challenging concepts. These kinds of skills transfer well to 21st century jobs, because Maker projects unlock innovative abilities! Taking hands-on creativity a step beyond do-it-yourself, we believe that Makers are at their best working in community, where ideas and resources can be shared.​ Our mission is to make sure all youth in L.A. have the opportunity to learn STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Art, and Math) skills. 
 
  • A certificated Physical Education Instructor who serves our students once a week.
 
  • A year-round visual arts & dance program on site once a week.
 
  • We have a unique partnership with Inner-City Arts, which provides our students with the tools and skills they need to succeed academically and personally. Our students are very fortunate to visit the Inner-City Arts campus where they get to work with professional teaching artists in well-equipped studios and performance spaces.
