For licenced stuff, Mahou Tsukai Tai (aka Magic Users' Club) is pretty good. It's deeper than it seems, although not by much. Also, you might like Fruits Basket if the magic isn't so important.

If the school part isn't a priority, Puchi Puri Yuushi is an option (and it's also unlicenced). It takes place in a fantasy world, but there is a school... sort of... alternatively, Stellvia of the Universe doesn't have the magic, being set in space, but it does have school.

Popotan has only two episodes that are mainly set in a school, but damn they're good. The series itself is pretty much a fanservice show (albeit one with a surprisingly good plot), though.

Seconding Ultra Maniac and Full Moon wo Sagashite. The first is rather lighthearted and simple fun, while the second is a bit deeper and serious, but still fun.

I haven't seen Mermaid Melody Pichi Pichi Pitch yet. It looks like it has some school parts in it, but I'm not sure.

If all else fails, there's always Card Captor Sakura.

EDIT: Oh yeah, you've already seen Da Capo. Sorry.
