Lake Tahoe Environmental Science Magnet

Tucked into the Sierra Nevada at the edge of one of the most stunning alpine lakes in the country, Lake Tahoe Environmental Science Magnet gives kids a classroom backdrop that most students only dream about. The science-focused magnet program is a natural fit for families drawn to South Lake Tahoe's outdoor lifestyle, where hiking, skiing, and the lake itself are practically part of the curriculum — both figuratively and, at a school like this, often literally. Families who want strong academics woven together with a genuine connection to the natural world will find this school hard to resist.
