About Us:
Sylmar Biotech Health and Engineering Magnet (SBHEM) is a public high school offering two pathways: biomedical/health and engineering. We provide a personalized learning environment emphasizing the importance of a college education and career preparation. We are dedicated to supporting historically marginalized communities and preparing our students for success in STEM and beyond.
 
Our students complete A-G requirements, take classes in their chosen pathways, and participate in summer internships, volunteer opportunities, and dual enrollment college classes with Los Angeles Mission College. As a result, the California State Superintendent has recognized us as a California Distinguished School for our excellence and commitment to providing our students with a quality education.
