School Description

For over 35 years, King/Drew Magnet High School of Medicine and Science has lived up to Dr. King’s belief that justice in health care must come about through equal opportunity founded in a rigorous education. Our school’s purpose has always been to give each child access to a first class education and exposure to health and science careers. We honor Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and Dr. Charles Drew in connecting our college preparatory curriculum to the community we serve. Our Careers Program has been the centerpiece of our school’s curriculum since its establishment and provides a unique opportunity for students to access experience-based learning in environments including hospitals, clinics, research laboratories, and university facilities. We are a thriving community of learners and leaders.
