Arts and Communication Magnet Academy

Arts and Communication Magnet Academy draws students from across the Beaverton area who are looking for something a little different — a high school where creative disciplines and strong academics genuinely go hand in hand rather than competing for attention. Scoring in the 84th percentile statewide, it's a serious academic school that also makes room for kids who think visually, write passionately, or want to explore media and the arts as a real focus. Beaverton itself is a diverse, well-resourced suburb just west of Portland, with easy access to the city's creative scene while still feeling like a community where families have space to put down roots.
