This year all
Middle School Magnet interviews, writing samples and activities will be
scheduled on February 7, 2015 at Spring Valley High School. Students
will be asked to bring a personally meaningful artifact to the interview. This
artifact is primarily used as a prop to put the student as ease and give the
interview team a way to personalize the interview. Students will
participate in a 15 minute individual interview with a team of two teachers and
then move to the auditorium to complete the writing sample. From there,
students applying to certain magnets will move to another area for a hands-on
activity. More details will come out soon, but for now, please be aware
of the upcoming important dates listed below.
