Welcome to San Jose Highly Gifted Magnet

San Jose Highly Gifted Magnet school gives children of extraordinary intelligence an opportunity to learn, grow and develop to their maximum potential. The Highly Gifted Magnet schools in Los Angeles are one of the few programs in the US designed for children with IQ of 145+.  These students have unique intellectual, social and emotional needs not addressed in regular “gifted” classrooms. San Jose HG Magnet brings together specialized teachers, challenging curriculum and compatible peers to ensure a meaningful education in a supportive environment.

The CHOICES Late Application for 2019-20 will open on February 1, 2019. During this time period you can submit an application for our magnet program for August.  Visit echoices.com to create a parent and student profile.  Once you create the profiles, you can apply through the Late Application link.  

Open House is on Tuesday, April 9th. Stop by our auditorium at 5:00 p.m. to visit the Science Fair.  The food sales and silent auction will begin at 5:30 p.m. in our lunch pavilion. Please stop by our wonderful classrooms- rooms 21, 22, and 23, from 6:00 p.m. - 7:00 p.m. 

We are proud to be the recipient of the Excelling Magnet Award for the 2017-18 school year.  This honor is based on the Magnet Performance Index where SBAC scores and attendance are major factors.  Way to go, SJHGM!
