Question for people who attend(ed) a private/magnet high school

For we dumb Europeans (that's not all Europeans by the way, just me and er....), can you tell me what a magnet school is?
Generally a public school that has some sort of selective admissions process and takes advanced students, often focusing in a particular area of study. For instance, I live near an elementary school that's an arts magnet. I go to a high school that's a science and technology magnet.
Some questions about community service would be good. Ask what they've done and what they've gotten out of it.

"Apocalype was a great game." - DrSpike
"In Apoc, I had one soldier who lasted through the entire game... was pretty cool. I like apoc for that reason, the soldiers are a bit more 'personal'." - General Ludd
magent schools were established to advance the cause of integration - a school that whites would otherwise shun could draw them if it had a specialty like science or art. Instead of drawing based on neighborhood, do it based on interests. Not to be confused with other selective public schools, many of which are much older, like the HS I attended, Stuyvesant in Manhattan (admission by test, no interview)

What on earth is a magnet school?
A school that attracts the best students (like a magnet)
As for Stuy, I would consider it elite, but all it requires is passing a standardized test.

Aaahhh- I had him pegged as being the equivalent of Unus the Untouchable rather than a Magneto or Dr. Polaris knock-off.
