Academic Support
At Metro we recognize the importance of providing academic support outside of the classroom so that all students can succeed. Students develop individual learning plans that may include a variety of before and after school tutoring sessions. The Learning Center is open from 8:30 am to 5:00 pm.

Advisory
Creating relationships are a core tenant of what we do at Metro, and advisory is the place where those relationships are nutured, and lasting ties to our community are formed. Each student has a faculty advisory who provides academic guidance and support, and facilitates communication between families and staff. Students meet twice weekly in advisory to engage in team building activities, prepare for exhibitions, and reflect on their academic progress.

Community Meeting
High School is a critical time for youth as they make the transition to adulthood. At Metro, few rules are imposed on students because we want them to tackle the difficult issues of personal and communal responsibility that will make them productive, successful citizens. The community meeting is a time for everyone to come together to discuss issues of community culture and governance. It provides a venue for students' voices to be heard, information to be shared and discussed, and decisions to be made.

Lunch Program
To think well you need to eat well. We offer a well-balanced, nutritional lunch featuring fresh, healthy ingredients. Each day of the week a different entree is offered which includes seasonal fruits and vegetables.

Electives
Electives are semester-long classes that take place in the afternoons once students have completed their core classes. Partnerships with community organizations allow us to provide a wide range of classes facilitated by Metro staff and our community partners. The elective offerings vary from semester to semester based on student interest. . Click here to view some of the creative projects students have working on in the past.
