Public District Schools

Pennsylvania’s 500 school districts offer education across the state, and also host many magnet schools that have specific themes such as math, science, technology or the performing arts.

Magnet Schools

Magnet schools are public schools that offer specialized curricula and programs that may not be available in the area district school. Most magnet schools focus on themes involving STEM, Fine and Performing Arts, International Studies, Career and Technical Education, and World Languages. These are designed to attract students with a common interest or skillset. Students must apply and be accepted to enroll. These schools are also publicly funded.
