The teachers and the principal provide a nurturing environment, and [...]

Gulen charter schools illusion

I have a son whose brain was “jumbled” for the first three years of his education sitting in public schools that were so focused on “average” students; he had nothing challenging educationally, no role models before him. I moved him to this charter school, and immediately started to see a spark of enthusiasm. Thanks to [...]

The best choice we’ve made

Parent Testimonial: My son attends Magnolia Science Academy for the last two years and this is the best choice we’ve made. Teachers at the charter school are really successful at what they do: no bullying, no drugs, and no dropouts. All these look like a good value for public funds. I was looking for a [...]

Magnolia Science Academy in Bell embraces many cultures in my neighborhood, and fosters a productive learning environment. All students are given individual instruction on the knowledge and skills they need. Teachers spend many hours by tutoring them for free, and all the students’ homes are visited to create the needed bridge between the parents and [...]
