Rhodes Magnet School doesn't kid around when it comes to community. You hear it from the staff, the kids and the parents. It's even embedded in their online mission statement: "We all know each other. We help each other out. Students, staff and families pitch in. Older students have a responsibility for younger kids. We want every child to reach his/her personal best. We recognize that each child has a special gift. Every child will be encouraged to reach his/her potential. We are all here to learn and help each other learn."
Since becoming a magnet school in 2004, Rhodes has been helping its students reach new heights of community and personal responsibility, as well as pushing their academic skills to the limit.
