The magnet program provides magnet students with an open lounge where students can work, eat lunch, and host meetings before and after school. Both James Auld, the magnet coordinator, and Leasa Bonilla, the magnet clerk, provide the students with an abundance of resources so that they can achieve all their goals. “I chose NC as it provided better opportunities for me as compared to my districted high school. I feel like I have achieved more through the magnet program as opposed to staying in my district. There was also more for me to be involved in at NC, like the clubs, games and people,” senior magnet student Allison Castaneda said.
