| Donate | Academic Magnet Foundation Fund Support Thanks for Giving 2021: the Academic Magnet Foundation is one of Magnet’s three dedicated parent organizations, working together to support our exceptional school. Our mission is to enhance Magnet’s long-term excellence by funding important programs such as AP course training for teachers, classroom technology enhancements, and the very popular Summer Scholars orientation program for new students. Historically, we’ve also supported school awareness and diversity efforts, including the highly successful Advancing Charleston Excellence (ACE) program to recruit and mentor high-performing students from high-poverty index middle schools. We also have several new initiatives that we intend to fund this year, including college prep enhancement services. Although the future can sometimes appear uncertain, The Foundation's primary goal remains constant: to help ensure Magnet's high standards for quality, achievement and stewardship for years to come. |
