My daughter is in this school in 6th grade and she love it! The teachers are good and very worry about the students, they are genuily interested in the best for the kid's.The only downside is they share campus with another school, and they will already have their own campus because the school is growing.I hpe LAUSD take care of this pretty soon.

From my experince this school is far beyond a good school. Honestly the staff there put no attention to the kids, they don't have a steady schedule for the kids they keep changing it everyday, they are not organized at all with the students, the lunch tables are terribly dirty. The second day of school kids got out early and no parent was notify of this last min change. I changed my kids to this school thinking it was a good school, but all I found in just a few day was disappoinment to everything that has to do with this school. So personally I wouldn't recomend your son or daughter to attend this school at allll!!!!!!!! I would rate this school with a 1.

Magnolia Science Academy 3 is a great school. There are some excellent teachers on board, and they actually care about the children they teach, and the education that they receive. The administration staff is beyond great, making sure that our kids are well taken care of. The schools website is the best parent/teacher connection that you could ask for.

This school is better than Curtiss. My child is doing better. They just need an afterschool program.

This school has very supportive and involved parents. A lot of the students better themselves due to the afterschool tutoring and afterschool clubs available. Theres also camping trips and the Europe trip that are not offered at regular public schools. I think offering these things is making students more involved and succesful in their classes

I like that all students must wear a uniform. I also like that theres a lot of acticities for them. Especially the afterschool tutoring to help all the kids learn and not stay behind.

I like the MagnoXP system that lets me check on my childs grades at all times online. Theres is good communication with parents and students. Our plan as parents with help from our teachers is for all of our kids to graduate and go on to college.

I love this school! I have nothing but good things to say about Magnolia Science Academy 3. The teachers and staff really care about the children and not only want them to go to college but graduate! The communication between my son's teacher's and I was outstanding. My son made it to the honor roll this year at Magnolia. I credit this to the great teachers and staff who helped and encouraged him along the way! I look forward to returning next year.

I think this school is the best one in Gardena. I do not know why LA school district has not assigned a good location in Gardena for it.

Posted June 12, 2009

I think the school has a lot of potential. Shame that LAUSD does not give it the credit it deserves and has not assigned a good location for it. Next year they will be sharing another existing school in Carson and that is a shame.

The caring staff and small class size makes this school seem part of our extended family. The advanced math and science program is a wonderful opportunity for kids who excell in math. Smaller size means any problems that arise are seen and dealt with more quickly than in the larger middle schools. As a Charter School, it provides the best opportunities of both a public and a private education.

This is really great school. The staff are very friendly and love teaching your kids. The principal is very professional. They have small classrooms, student/teacher ratio is relatively lower than other public schools. I really recommend this school if you want your kids to get something out of the school.

About the tests


In 2011-2012 California used the California Standards Tests (CSTs) to test students in English language arts in grades 2 through 11; math in grades 2 through 7; science in grades 5, 8 and 10; and history-social science in grades 8 and 11. Middle and high school students also took subject-specific CSTs in math and science, depending on the course in which they were enrolled. The CSTs are standards-based tests, which means they measure how well students are mastering specific skills defined for each grade by the state of California. The goal is for all students to score at or above proficient on the tests.

About the tests


In 2011-2012 California used the California Standards Tests (CSTs) to test students in English language arts in grades 2 through 11; math in grades 2 through 7; science in grades 5, 8 and 10; and history-social science in grades 8 and 11. Middle and high school students also took subject-specific CSTs in math and science, depending on the course in which they were enrolled. The CSTs are standards-based tests, which means they measure how well students are mastering specific skills defined for each grade by the state of California. The goal is for all students to score at or above proficient on the tests.

The different student groups are identified by the California Department of Education; if there are fewer than 10 students in a particular group in a school, the state doesn't report data for that group.

About the tests


In 2011-2012 California used the California Standards Tests (CSTs) to test students in English language arts in grades 2 through 11; math in grades 2 through 7; science in grades 5, 8 and 10; and history-social science in grades 8 and 11. Middle and high school students also took subject-specific CSTs in math and science, depending on the course in which they were enrolled. The CSTs are standards-based tests, which means they measure how well students are mastering specific skills defined for each grade by the state of California. The goal is for all students to score at or above proficient on the tests.

The different student groups are identified by the California Department of Education; if there are fewer than 10 students in a particular group in a school, the state doesn't report data for that group.

About the tests


In 2011-2012 California used the California High School Exit Exam (CAHSEE) to test high school students' skills in English language arts and mathematics. The results for grade 10 students taking the test for the first time are displayed on GreatSchools profiles. The CAHSEE is a standards-based test, which means it measures how well students are mastering specific skills defined by the state of California. Students must pass all parts of the CAHSEE in order to graduate from high school. If they do not pass it the first time, students have multiple opportunities to retake the test. The goal is for all students to pass both sections of the test.
