Liberty Community Conversation

Participants in a Community Conversation develop ideas for improving METS education in Liberty.

The organizing team is currently working on the final report. So far three common, high priority areas were identified in the closing reports from the discussion groups:

  • Partnerships – developing ongoing relationships between students, educators, parents and industry professionals/local businesses to 'close the loop' between education and the real-world
  • Awareness – ensuring all stakeholders have a common understanding of future job skill requirements, METS education opportunities & approaches, and educational goals, outcomes and constraints
  • Curricular Opportunities – utilizing the most effective curricula
    and/or models of learning to engage students in and foster METS education goals
