"Wake county has many great schools, but Partnership is by far one of the best.  It's small size and theme means all of the teachers and staff get to know your child as a person and connect with them."

"Being a magnet school, you attract new people. I love that because that means I can watch a community form slowly, as if I were a spectator and a player."
