Downtown Magnets High School (also known as Downtown Business Magnet, DBM, or DMHS) is a magnet high school located in the downtown area of the Los Angeles Unified School District (LAUSD). The school is adjacent to many regional transit lines including the Los Angeles County Metro (Red and Purple line Civic Centre/Grand Park Station, and the terminal for the Metro Blue and Expo line 7th Street Metro Centre). Being adjacent to the many transit lines and cuts in LAUSD spending have led to many students using the Metro system to commute to school and home; however there are still remain plenty of school bus routes that feed the school for as nearly 70% of students do not live in the area. The school houses three magnets: Business (DBM), Fashion (FCC), and Electronic Information (EIM). The three magnets combined hold a total student population of approximately 1,000 students, an almost unheard of, small population size in LAUSD. Since opening in the fall of 1981, close student-faculty bonds have often formed, playing an important factor in the school's very high graduation and college-attendance rates, in addition to high test scores. The school is located less than a ten-minute walk from the heart of Downtown Los Angeles, which holds: The Los Angeles Museum of Contemporary Art, The Walt Disney Concert Hall, The Los Angeles Central Library, and many other educational landmarks. Due to this proximity, various partnerships have formed with nearby institutions, to the great benefit of students. For instance, students in the Business Magnet are able to take full advantage of local internship opportunities with companies such as Smith Barney, AIG, Wells Fargo and KPMG. ==History==
The school was founded in 1981, when a visionary established a school that focused on academic excellence with a specialization in business training. The school was named Downtown Business Magnet High School. The school's first class consisted of 55 sophomores from different neighborhoods around LAUSD. By 1994, FCC & EIM were formed.
