I had a really good experience at this school. It definitely prepares you for college with the rigorous academic workload. Atmosphere is great and everyone gets along great. Teachers could care about the students more instead of how much work they need to assign and administration could care more about the student that the school score, but other than that great school!

I am in the class of 2018 and I love my school. Magnet is full of intelligent scholars. This school is made for preparing every student to soar in college. College is very important to every teacher and student here. Magnet is full of art and music with very talented individuals. I love our picnic days and scene days. Our picnics and practically all school day long with lots of food and games! Scene day is where the talent shines all school day long with singing, dancing, skits and more. I absolutely love my school and hope that the incoming freshman classes continue to grow.
I love it! Caddo is easily the best school in parish for arts; I can’t think of any rival nearby. The academics are also up there. I wouldn’t change my experience for anything. My only problem is the rigor of the dress code applied to female students, but male students and female teachers can break dress code more easily.
