I
have heard of the Met before and recommend this option to a lot of my students transitioning
to high school, but I have never seen it for myself. The campus was very nice
and had a college feel to it.
At
first look you could tell that the students were all very unique from one
another. I was incredibly impressed with how easily the youth from the MET
blended in with a group of adults and had so much to offer. The students had
such eloquent answer to any questions we had; it was super impressive. The best
part was being able to sit with some of the students one on one and listen to what
they had to say.
When
it came to talking to our mentees one on one, I was so impressed with the questions
she wanted answers to and what meaning they had to her and her life.
I’m
really excited to be a part of this project and can’t wait to see what these
students come up with!
