Integrated Programs @ Metz
Integrated programs are educational approaches that intentionally connect and blend different subject areas or disciplines to provide a more holistic and relevant learning experience for students. Instead of teaching subjects like math, science, language arts, and social studies in isolation, integrated programs aim to create meaningful connections between these different content areas.
The main goal of integrated programs is to help students understand how different disciplines relate to each other and how knowledge from various subjects can be applied to real-world situations. By making these connections explicit, students can develop a deeper understanding of complex concepts and see the relevance and interconnectedness of what they are learning.
Our goal is to create a cohesive and meaningful educational experience that allows students to understand and reflect on the interconnected nature of the real world.
At Metz we offer two integrated programs, a humanities program and a math science program.
