Sycamore Magnet Academy

Tucked into the heart of Tustin — a city that blends old California charm with modern suburban life — Sycamore Magnet Academy draws families who are serious about academics, particularly in math and science. As a K-8 magnet school, it offers something rare: a continuous, cohesive learning environment that carries kids all the way through middle school without the disruption of switching campuses. Families willing to seek out a magnet program will find a school with strong academic bones in a community that still feels neighborly, with tree-lined streets and a walkable Old Town district just a short drive away.
