Scotlandville Magnet High School is a public high school located on Louisiana Highway 19 (Scotland Avenue) in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, United States. Scotlandville is a part of the East Baton Rouge Parish Public Schools.

Scotlandville is a magnet school and comprehensive campus. All magnet and engineering honors students are housed in a different building from the community and Center of Excellence students. Its two rival schools are Glen Oaks High School and Baton Rouge Magnet High School.

After a nearly 10 year absence of the program, the school's varsity football team was re-instituted in the 2001-2002 school year.

During a period from the mid 1980s to the late 1990s, Scotlandville was a magnet only school that required a 2.5 GPA to stay in the school. It also housed the High School for the Engineering Professions, which required a 3.0 to stay in the program. Both of these requirements, and these programs, were cut in the late 1990s. During this period of time, there were no major athletics at the school (football, baseball and basketball), as the main focus was academic. When this change occurred, the school lost the majority of the staff and leadership of the school.

[edit] School uniforms

Scotlandville, as with all East Baton Rouge Parish public schools, requires its students to wear school uniforms [1]. The school's mascot has returned to the Hornets after being the Eagles for many years.
