Highly Gifted Magnet

Portola Highly Gifted Magnet, established in 1979, shares the campus of Portola Middle School. It is the only middle school program in LAUSD designed specifically to meet the needs of highly gifted students.  It is a well-rounded, academically rigorous program that emphasizes problem-solving, critical thinking, and establishing a growth mindset.

Our highly gifted magnet school has been deemed an "Excelling School" by the Los Angeles Unified School District. This designation means that more than 75% of our students score in the "Exceeding" range in both English Language Arts (ELA) and Math on the annual testing administered by the state of California. The magnet program focuses on accelerated, in-depth coursework in history, language arts, mathematics, and science.
