"Magnet was the best choice for me because after four years I've become strongly equipped to endure any hardship thrown my way, whether it be academic or not. The Magnet family at GHS has overall strengthened me as a person."
Matthew Gonzalez
Class of 2015
UCLA
"From my AP Computer Science class I learned more about how programs work and solutions to technical problems. I can make an app, I am fluent in code, I understand how binary and internet security works, and how to make websites. I am confident that my computer science training here has prepared me well for my major at UCSC."
