I'm not impressed with this school. The best elementry schools are: Poe, Lenart, Skiner, Powell, Murray Black is horrible. :(

My son transferred from another magnet school and the principal and staff have really welcomed him with open arms. I'm so glad we made the change to a smaller school. My son loves RAB and so do I. The teachers really care and the kids are so polite and intelligent.

Black has always had the reputation of exemplary instruction and programs. It does, however, lack extracurricular activities for the K-3 branch. Need more energy-channeling activities.

Black Magnet is a great school with a caring faculty who place a real emphasis on learning and thinking critically. The teachers and principals create an environment conducive to advanced study while maintaining order through discipline tempered with genuine care and concern for the students. My child is treated and nurtured as a whole little person, and as such has wonderful self-esteem, pride, and confidence in her academic abilities. My child is constantly encouraged to excel and achieve goals, and to explore new territories, which she does, with the assurance that her teachers will be there to guide and instruct her. I am proud to say I also attended Black, and the same commitment to education and nurturing the whole child has continued as a lasting tradition.
