I have two kids at Magnet since 5 years ago. This year we have a new principal and there has been positive changes. They are educating well rounded students and I have no complains, I love this school.

My kids have attended this school for the last 9 years. The first 5 years were everything I wanted in a school, high academics, happy teachers, and a staff who cared about the kids. These last 4 years have gone down hill fast, I kept waiting year after year hoping the principal would get our school back on track. This never happened, My kids will be attending another school next year. I would not advise anyone to check out this school.

Both my children attend Magnet Traditional and it is a great school, back to basics learning and this school has higher academic standards than most schools. My only complaint is that it seems over the past couple of years the discipline issues have gotten out of hand at Magnet it seems like some really bad kids have gotten into the school and not too much is being done to those few bad kids. Would like to see stricter punishments for those few bad kids.

Magnet Traditional is the academic flagship of the central Phoenix elementary schools, and parents living in the Phoenix metro area would be wise to check it out. As parents we value high academic standards, school uniforms, classroom discipline, racial and cultural diversity, daily homework, and parental involvement. More support from the local school district would be beneficial, as well as higher teacher pay. But overall, an excellent school and an asset to the community.
