School Overview

Tucked into the foothills of La Crescenta, Clark Magnet is one of those schools that families in the Glendale area quietly compete to get into — and for good reason. With a STEM and technology focus that puts it among the top high schools in California, it draws motivated students from across the district who are serious about engineering, computer science, and hands-on technical learning. La Crescenta itself has a small-town, mountain-adjacent feel that's a world away from the bustle of the broader LA basin, making it a surprisingly calm backdrop for what is genuinely one of the more rigorous academic programs in the region.
