I'm not sure what level you're looking for, because I'm not aware of much at the elementary level, but CHAMPS charter high school is in Van Nuys currently, but might be moving onto the Taft High School campus this fall. Their website is at http://www.champscharter.com/
You've missed the magnet deadline for 2008-09 but Millikan in Sherman Oaks and Pacoima Middle School offer programs for 6-8, and Van Nuys High School has an incredible magnet program within their Live Concert Academy.
With so many schools going to the "Smaller Learning Academies" model, you might want to contact your local school and see what the local schools are offering. You might find a school closer with what you're looking for. In order to locate schools close to you, click on the "Research and Compare" link at the top of your webpage and type in your zip code and go from there.
Thanks so much for responding! My son is going into the 4th grade and I am looking for a school that can nurture him academically and creatively. I will definitely check out that website. They may be helpful.
Where is this school? And is it a magnet or a charter? I hadn't heard of any opening this year, and it would be great to include for people who are trying to get off the waiting list at some of the "hot" magnets. Thanks!12033
hey there magnetmom! its an "after school" school as of right now...so it wont help with the waiting lists unfortunately... :( but its a great supplement.12032
