The WMS Magnet Coordinators in front of the Magnet Schools of America banner at the MSA conference .

The Academy for Gifted and Talented magnet coordinators attended the Magnet Schools of America national conference in Nashville, TN, April 7-11, 2025. While at the conference, the coordinators could attend a school tour of two magnet middle schools in Metro Nashville. They were able to learn about their curriculum, networking, and what sets them apart. The two coordinators attended sessions on marketing, podcasting, building a master schedule, and working with community partners. The best part of the conference, aside from all the breakout sessions, was networking with the other magnet schools within Huntsville City Schools.
