Van Nuys High School is really quite remarkable. I'm in the Performing Arts magnet, and contrary to popular belief, we also take academics seriously while maintaining our extracurricular activities. Our fabulous dance team has won nationals for the last five or so years. Our vocal and theatre programs are also great. Our robotics team have gone to international heights. Medical and math/science magnet are also great. Outstanding APs and awesome teachers, notably the History department. Very carefree and diverse environment. Admittedly, resident school is not as disciplined but not bad.

The school is the only LAusd school with 3 very demanding magnets -- math science, performing arts and medical magnet. Its API with includes the resident population and the 3 magnets jumped 53 points last year. That is exceptional. The teachers are first rate and are led by one of the best principals in LAUSD. There is an active Magnet Parents Association that has brought Princeton Review on campus and the American Field Service International Scholarships. For years the school has had the highest AP test passing rate of all of LAUSD. Its science bowl team is always in the mix of finalists. Visit the website at Vannuyshs.org.
