High school in Los Angeles, California‧
The Iovine and Young Center (IYC) Inglewood is an innovative public magnet high school launched in partnership with the Inglewood Unified School District. Co-founded by legendary music icons and entrepreneurs Jimmy Iovine and Andre "Dr. Dre" Young, the academy expands on their educational model combining common core academics with a specialized focus on Integrated Design, Technology, and Entrepreneurship (IDTE). After expanding to Atlanta, the founders officially brought the program to Inglewood, welcoming its inaugural freshman class for the 2025–2026 school year with plans to progressively scale through the 12th grade.
