General Information
1. What are magnet programs?
Magnet programs are theme-oriented programs with a specialized curriculum or an emphasis on instruction that is different from that generally offered in other schools in the school system. They provide in-depth experiences and distinct choices for students with different interests, talents, and aptitudes, while fulfilling Baltimore County Public Schools' requirements for promotion and graduation. Access to these specialized programs is provided through the magnet application process.
2. What magnet programs are available to students?
Baltimore County Public Schools offers over 100 magnet programs for elementary, middle and high school students. Descriptions of the magnet programs available at each level are provided on the Magnet Programs' Descriptions page and in the magnet program brochures.
3. Are magnet programs only for students in GT/Advanced Academic courses?
No. Magnet programs address the interests and needs of a wide range of students. Any student who has a strong interest in and a particular talent or aptitude for one of the specialized programs is encouraged to apply. No admission advantage or priority is given to students in advanced academic courses. Advanced academic courses are available in almost all Baltimore County Public Schools and are described in detail on the Office of Advanced Academic's Web site.
4. Do students with disabilities receive support services at the schools with magnet programs?
Students with disabilities, including those on Section 504 plans and with Individualized Education Programs, are entitled to accommodations, supports, and services at the school of enrollment. Special education and related services are available at all public schools, including magnet schools and programs, within Baltimore County Public Schools. Parents with questions regarding the availability of special education support services at a particular school should contact the department chair for special education at the individual school or contact the Office of Special Education.
5. Where are the magnet programs located?
Elementary, middle, and high school magnet programs are available at a number of public school locations throughout Baltimore County. The host school(s) for each magnet program is identified in the program description. A map of schools hosting magnet programs is available on the Magnet Programs' Description by School page and in the magnet program brochures.
6. Will my child receive transportation to and from the magnet program?
Transportation is provided to students who live within the established transportation zone of a magnet program. The transportation zones can be found in the magnet brochures and on the Transportation page. Baltimore County Public Schools does not provide magnet program transportation outside of the established transportation zone.
7. How is transportation for magnet programs provided?
Baltimore County Public Schools provides transportation to and from schools with magnet programs for students who reside within the established transportation zone of the magnet program. Transportation is provided from a limited number of pick-up points located at designated school sites. Parents are responsible for providing transportation for their students to and from their designated pick-up point.
NOTE: Pick-up points do not fall under the same guidelines as regular bus stops with regard to distance and walking conditions. In addition, supervision is not provided by the school system at the pick-up points.

Parents of students who are new residents of Baltimore County after the application deadline and before the start of the school year for which admission is being sought may submit a New Resident application to BCPS Magnet Programs. Information regarding the new resident application process and required documentation is made available on the New Resident webpage beginning in mid-April of each year. New resident applicants are considered if program seats become available and the wait list for the program has been exhausted.
20. If my child lives in Baltimore County but does not attend a public school in Baltimore County, can I apply as a new resident?
No. A student who lived in Baltimore County prior to the application deadline, whether or not the student attended a Baltimore County public school, is not eligible to apply as a new resident. Any student who lived in Baltimore County prior to the application deadline was eligible to apply during the regular application cycle.
Admission Process – Qualification
21. What are the requirements to be considered for placement in a magnet program?
Elementary and Middle School Magnet Programs
Applicants to elementary and middle school magnet programs must be eligible to attend a Baltimore County public school and, if applying to kindergarten, must either meet Maryland Age of Entry requirements at the time of application or must qualify for early admission to kindergarten as a result of testing at their zoned elementary schools (please see BCPS Early Childhood Programs' Web site). A letter requesting early admission to kindergarten testing must be sent to the principal of the applicant's zoned school.. There are no other academic or performance criteria for the elementary or middle school magnet programs.
High School Magnet Programs
Applicants to high school magnet programs must be eligible to attend a Baltimore County public school and must complete the magnet evaluation and assessment process. For most high school magnet programs, the evaluation includes an assessment of the student’s academic performance for the most recent 5 quarters/4 trimesters and a program-specific assessment conducted by the school hosting the magnet program.
22. How is academic performance evaluated? (high school ONLY)
The academic performance for the previous year and the first quarter/trimester of the current year may be reviewed and evaluated. Program specific academic criteria and associated point values are provided in the Assessment Guidelines.
For high school applicants who have received Baltimore County Public School (BCPS) report cards during the 2023-2024 and the first quarter of the 2024-2025 school year, the academic grade reports will be obtained by the Magnet Programs office from BCPS system data.
Applicants who received grade reports from a non-BCPS school for any portion of the 2023-2024 school year must submit a copy of the report card(s) at the time of application. Applicants who will receive a report card from a non-BCPS school for the first quarter/trimester of the 2024-2025 school year must submit a copy of that report card when received, but no later than December 6, 2024.
Academic grades, current mathematics enrollment and attendance may be reviewed. Students are awarded points for meeting established standards. There is no weighting or special consideration given to grades received in gifted and talented classes, trimester grades, or grades that are calculated on scales other than those used by BCPS.
23. What is the magnet assessment? (high school ONLY)
ALL high schools with magnet programs conduct assessments that are specific to each magnet program and may include an audition, practicum, interview, writing sample, test, and/or performance assessment. It is the responsibility of the parent to ensure that the applicant has an assessment appointment, to note the date and time of the assessment, to review the application materials, and to ensure that the applicant prepares for and attends the assessment.
24. Why is it important to obtain the Assessment Guidelines prior to the assessment(s)? (high school ONLY)
The Assessment Guidelines contain specific information regarding the components of each assessment and any preparation required prior to the assessment. They may also include sample questions and self-evaluation tools. The guidelines may be downloaded starting September 10, 2024 from the High School Assessment Guidelines and Scheduling page, or they may be obtained from individual schools at which assessments are held. It is the parent's responsibility to obtain the Assessment Guidelines for each program to which the applicant applies.
25. What if my child has documented testing accommodations?
Students receiving special education, 504, and/or ESOL services are given the same consideration in the selection process as all other students. Documented testing accommodations and modifications will be provided during the high school magnet assessment process. Parents of students not attending a Baltimore County public school must submit documentation of testing accommodation requirements with the magnet application.
Parents of children with Special Education plans are strongly encouraged to work with their school's Special Education team and/or Special Education Transition Facilitator in completing the magnet application.
Admission Process – Selection
26. Do students currently enrolled in magnet programs receive preference in selection for magnet programs at the next level (middle or high)?
No. Current magnet students must reapply for the next level (ex. fifth grader going to middle school or eighth grader going to high school) and are not provided with any preference in the admissions process.
27. Do students currently on a wait list for a magnet program get preferential placement in the next application cycle?
No. All applicants are given equal consideration. To be considered for placement in the next application cycle, wait-listed students must apply and qualify for their program(s) of interest. Grade-level restrictions may apply.
28. How are applicants selected for placement in a magnet program?
If there are fewer applicants than seats available for a magnet program, all eligible applicants are offered placement.
Elementary and Middle School magnet programs – If the number of applicants exceeds the number of seats available, seats are first filled with priority placements and then a random lottery is conducted to fill all remaining seats and to generate a wait list.
High School magnet programs – If the number of applicants exceeds the number of seats available, seats are first filled with priority placements. Next, a random lottery of applicants who score 80% or higher on the admissions criteria will be conducted to fill available seats and to generate a wait list. Finally, a random lottery will be conducted in order of descending scores (79%, 78%, 77%, etc.) to fill available seats and generate a wait list.
29. Who receives priority placement in magnet programs?
Child of an Employee – When a BCPS employee’s primary work site is a school with a magnet program and the employee’s child applies to a magnet program in that school, the child will be given priority placement in the magnet program as follows:
• For elementary and middle school magnet programs, the child must be an eligible applicant.
• For high school magnet programs, the child must be an eligible applicant and score 80% of higher on the admissions criteria.
Kindergarten Sibling Priority Placement - At the elementary level, eligible kindergarten applicants who have an older sibling who is currently enrolled in and who will continue to attend the same magnet program for which admission is being sought receive priority placement for that program.
High School Program Priority Placement - Up to 20% of the available seats in a program will first be filled by applicants who score 80% or higher on the admissions criteria and who earn the highest scores on the magnet assessment(s).
Note: Sibling applicants, including multiples, do not receive preferential placement.
30. How and when will I be notified of my admission status?
All applicants receive email notification of their status from BCPS Magnet Programs. Magnet admission decisions for elementary and middle school applicants will be released by January 10, 2025 (date subject to change). Magnet admission decisions for high school applicants will be released by March 7, 2025 (date subject to change).
31. If I am offered and accept a magnet placement, what do I need to do next?
The school will contact you with enrollment information and the date by which enrollment must be completed. Failure to enroll by the date set by the school may result in forfeiture of the program seat.
PLEASE NOTE:
• Enrollment in a magnet program is contingent upon proof of eligibility to attend a Baltimore County public school.
• The parent is responsible for providing transportation to and from the magnet program if transportation is not provided by Baltimore County Public Schools. Where transportation is provided by Baltimore County Public Schools, parents are responsible for transporting their student to and from the designated magnet bus stop.
• When placement is accepted in a magnet program that is not in the child's zoned (neighborhood) school, the child will be enrolled as a "Special Transfer" student under the terms and conditions of Board Policy and Superintendent’s Rule 5140.
Admission Process – Wait List
32. How do I get my child on a wait list?
Only students who applied by the application deadline and meet the eligibility requirements for a magnet program can be placed on a wait list. When there are more applicants for a magnet program than there are seats to accommodate them, a random lottery selection process is used to fill the available seats and create a wait list for the program. Placement on the wait list means, as a result of the random lottery process, your child was not selected for initial placement. If a student who was offered admission declines the placement, the unfilled seat can then be offered to students on the wait list. Wait lists are maintained until the close of business on the last day of the first quarter of the school year for which admission is sought.
33. What does the wait-list number mean?
The wait-list number indicates your child's position on the wait list. Unfilled seats are offered to students in ascending order of the wait-list number, starting with the student who is number 1.
34. Is it possible for the wait-list number to increase?
While this rarely happens, as a result of an appeal decision, a student may need to be randomly placed within an existing lottery list. Students on the waitlist behind the random placement will see an increase in their wait-list number. For example, if a student is randomly placed into the tenth position, the wait-list numbers of students who originally had number 10 or more, would increase by 1.
35. How can I check the status of the wait list?
Wait-list numbers are included in the lottery decision emails.
Beginning April 14, 2025, parents may log into their parent dashboard in the Online Magnet Application System to see their child's wait-list status. The student's wait-list number will decrease as students are offered placements and removed from the list.
36. What are my child's chances of getting into a program from the wait list?
If an applicant is offered placement in a magnet program and declines the seat, the BCPS Magnet Programs’ staff will contact the next applicant on the wait list. This process continues until the close of business on the last day of the first quarter of the school year for which admission is sought. It is impossible to predict how many, if any, applicants may decline a placement offer. If all of the seats in a program are filled, no additional applicants will be offered placement from the wait list.
37. How will I be contacted with a placement offer?
The BCPS Magnet Programs’ staff will contact parents of wait-listed applicants by email using the email address(es) provided on the application. It is important that parents be prepared to accept or decline the placement when contacted. If no email address was provided, parents will be contacted by phone. If no one is available to take the call, the office staff must be able to leave a message. It is the parent's responsibility to inform the BCPS Magnet Programs’ staff if their email address(es) and/or phone number(s) change.
38. If my child is offered placement, how long will I have to make a decision?
The parent will have three (3) days in which to respond to the placement offer. If the last day to accept the offer falls on a Saturday, Sunday, or a school system holiday, the period ends on the next day which is not a Saturday, Sunday, or school system holiday. Failure to respond by the deadline will result in forfeiture of the seat and the offer will be extended to the next applicant on the wait list.
39. If I accept a seat in one program, will my child be removed from the wait list(s) for other programs?
No. Your child will remain on the other wait list(s) until you are offered a seat, until the wait list is no longer active, or until you request your child to be removed from the wait list. If you decline a placement offer for a program, your child will only be removed from that program's list.
40. If I have two or more children on a wait list for the same magnet program or school and one is offered a seat, will the sibling(s) be offered placement at the same time?
No. Sibling applicants, including multiples, receive no priority placement from the wait lists. Applicants can only be offered placement in the order in which they appear on the wait list.
41. If I accept a magnet placement offer from the wait list, what do I need to do next?
Parents will need to schedule an enrollment appointment with the school. Failure to enroll in a timely manner may result in forfeiture of the program seat.
PLEASE NOTE:
• Enrollment in a magnet program is contingent upon proof of eligibility to attend a Baltimore County public school.
• The parent is responsible for providing transportation to and from the magnet program if transportation is not provided by Baltimore County Public Schools.
• When placement is accepted in a magnet program that is not in the child's zoned (neighborhood) school, the child will be enrolled as a "Special Transfer" student under the terms and conditions of Board Policy and Superintendent's Rule 5140.
42. What should I do if my child is not offered placement from the wait list by the start of the school year?
You will need to enroll your child in his/her zoned (neighborhood) school or any other school where your child has been offered placement.
43. Could my child be offered a seat after the school year starts?
Yes. Placement offers may be made until the close of business on the last day of the first quarter of the school year for which admission is sought. If you accept a magnet program placement after the start of the school year, your child will be permitted to transfer at that time. The school will assist parents in the transfer and registration process.
Withdrawal Process
44. Is it possible for my child to transfer from one magnet program to another?
No. Students may not transfer from one magnet program to another. Students wishing to change magnet programs must apply and be offered placement for the program during the regular application cycle. Some grade-level restrictions may be in place for certain programs.
45. Can my child stay in the magnet program if we move?
Students admitted to the magnet programs may remain in the program as long as their parents are residents of Baltimore County, and the student has not been withdrawn to attend another school, public or private. If a family or student moves within Baltimore County but out of the magnet program's transportation zone, transportation will not be provided by BCPS.
46. Can I request a temporary leave of absence from a magnet program?
A parent of a student enrolled in a magnet program may request a temporary leave of absence. Any request for temporary leave from a magnet school or program must be approved, in advance of such leave of absence, by the principal of the school. Re-enrollment in a magnet program will not be granted if the student is withdrawn without a pre-approved leave of absence. (For additional information, please refer to Superintendent’s Rule 6400: Magnet Programs.)
47. Under what circumstances will a leave-of-absence request be considered?
• A student may be granted a leave of absence for a maximum of one (1) year if the family and/or student move(s) out of Baltimore County temporarily.
• A student may be granted a leave of absence from the magnet program for medical reasons for the period of time necessary to complete treatment and/or recovery from treatment for any of the following reasons:
(A) A stay as a patient in a hospital or medical facility for an extended period of time; or
(B) Enrollment in a licensed full-time substance abuse treatment program.
• Requests which are based on medical, physical, or mental health reasons must be accompanied by documentation from a physician or mental health provider.
48. Under what circumstances can my child be withdrawn from a magnet program?
• Parents may remove students from magnet schools and programs and return them to their home schools. Principals of the students' home schools will not deny the enrollment of such students.
• Any student who violates the code of conduct is subject to suspension, assignment to an alternative program or expulsion as provided in Board of Education Policy 5550: Disruptive Behavior. At the end of the expulsion period, the superintendent's designee, in consultation with the community superintendent, may either return the student to the magnet program from which he/she was expelled or place the student in his/her zoned school or other appropriate placement.
• A student may be withdrawn from a magnet program at the end of the year if the student fails one or more required courses in a magnet program. A student who is withdrawn from a magnet program shall be enrolled in the student’s zoned school, unless the parent has arranged for admission to another school.
Any decision by the principal to withdraw a student from a magnet program because of academic failure in a required magnet course shall be approved in advance by the coordinator of Magnet Programs. The principal will provide the student's parent(s) with a written explanation of the basis for the withdrawal that includes the process for appealing the decision.
Appeal Process
49. Under what circumstances can I appeal?
Parents may appeal admission or withdrawal decision made under Superintendent's Rule 6400, XII. Appeal Process.
50. How do I appeal an admission or dismissal decision?
Appeals must be made by the parent in writing to the Director of Educational Opportunities (Ms. Leeann Schubert, 105 W.
