(2 / 5) Flag as inappropriate - As a Parent/Gaurdian of a student at "Magnet High" I think I know why the school is a blue ribbon school and the test scores are so high. "COMFORT CARDS" I couldn't beleive it when I was told that at "MAGNET" that is how things are done. When I when to school those were called "CHEAT SHEETS". I have read comments from other school reveiws and people have talked about Magnet like it was so great, I wonder if they knew about "COMFORT CARDS". I have kids who got a great educations from other schools in caddo parish, both went or are going to college now and they had or have no problem in college. So I think the other schools prepared them very well with out "COMFORT CARDS".

(5 / 5) Flag as inappropriate - If you are serious in your child acquiring a higher education that is second to none, I urge any parent to please take the time to check into Caddo Parish Magnet High School's website, see the reviews on GreatSchoolsdotcom, or speak with the phenomenal staff at Magnet High. You will not be disappointed, and you will have had a hand in providing your child with the best public school education that not even some Private schools can provide or compare to. I'm a former student, now a parent of 3 and no matter where we are in the nation, I've yet to find another Magnet High. It's second to NONE.
