Three schools have been named Schools of Excellence, and three have been designated Schools of Distinction by MSA.

To receive a national merit award, members of Magnet Schools of America must submit a detailed application that is scored by a panel of educators. These schools are judged and scored on their demonstrated ability to raise student academic achievement, promote racial and socioeconomic diversity, provide integrated curricula and instruction, and create a strong family and community partnerships that enhance the school’s magnet theme.

There are two categories of awards that have been established by MSA:

•The Magnet School of Excellence Awards are given to only a select group of magnet schools that have demonstrated the highest level of excellence in all facets of the merit award application.
•Magnet School of Distinction Awards are the second level of awards and are given to magnet schools that have met all the basic requirements outlined in the merit awards scoring rubric.

The following is a list of those magnet schools recognized this year.

Kujawa Early Childhood/PreK/K School — International Baccalaureate® Primary Years Program
Principal: Andrea Davis

Kujawa Elementary School (Grades 1-5) — International Baccalaureate® Primary Years Program

Schools of Distinction

Drew Academy for Math, Science, Technology & Fine Arts (Grades 7-8)

Principal: Denise Winchester

The principals will be recognized and receive a National Magnet School of Distinction Merit Award on behalf of the school during an awards ceremony held at Magnet Schools of America’s 38th National Conference hosted by Clark County School District in Clark County, Nevada, April 13-17, 2020.
