Magnet Fair

The auditorium, gym and cafeteria at Southeast Raleigh will be filled with excitement as magnet school students act, dance and sing in the auditorium, while information sessions on elementary and secondary magnet themes are presented in the gym and cafeteria.

The magnet fair is open to the public and creates a venue for parents and students to visit interactive display booths and inquire about such magnet programs as Gifted and Talented, International Baccalaureate, Museums, University Connections, Leadership and Technology.

A new engineering theme focused on math and science is planned for Brentwood Elementary and the International Baccalaureate Primary Years Programme is planned for Smith Elementary.

For over 25 years, WCPSS's award-winning magnet schools have enhanced the NC Standard Course of Study with innovative approaches to learning that empower students.
