About Magnolia Science Academy - 8 Bell
Magnolia Science Academy-8 is an independent public charter school in Bell, authorized by LAUSD and part of Magnolia Public Schools. We are a small middle school for grades 6 to 8, with classes capped at 27 students and a STEAM-based, college preparatory program that includes science labs and robotics projects and competitions.
Besides math, science, social studies and English, students take physical education and a foreign language every day, and electives include accelerated math, computer, Spanish and life skills. We run a GATE program, and support for English learners, students with disabilities and students below grade level is built into instruction. In special education, education specialists co-teach with general education teachers, paraprofessionals provide added support, and designated instruction and services are part of students' IEPs.
Learning continues outside the regular day through ASES after-school programming, tutoring and clubs, Saturday School with tutoring and parent workshops, and winter, spring and summer academic camps. Our teachers make home visits to get to know each family. Any student in California may apply, and when applications exceed space we hold a public lottery with sibling priority.
