Humanitas Magnet
Humanitas Magnet for Interdisciplinary Studies
About Us
Humanitas has been a small learning community at Grant High School since 1990. We transitioned to a Magnet program in 2018. We offer a unique learning opportunity that challenges students with high expectations and creates a tight-knit community. Students often remark that Humanitas feels like a family. Our mission has been the same: to inspire lifelong learners and create a culture of curiosity. We welcome students from all backgrounds, abilities, and identities. Diversity creates a richer experience for all.
Our students participate in all Grant High School programs, sports, and extracurricular activities. The interdisciplinary aspect of the Humanitas program is built into the Humanitas courses, supporting students to make connections both within and across our curriculum. Interdisciplinary curriculum not only supports the natural process of the brain to make connections across knowledge, but encourages students to think more critically and see the deeper connection to their education and life.
Humanitas has partnered with LA Valley College for the past six years, and our on going partnership continues to evolve. Starting with the class of 2029, Humanitas will begin working closer with LA Valley College to align courses to our yearly themes and to support students to try college courses while receiving support from their high school teachers.
