MTCS has been a trailblazer from the beginning. We specialize in working with students who have been underserved and we bring them school how they need it. We have eight programs each with a unique approach and style with exciting changes coming next year. Here are a few ways we innovate: blending online learning with classrooms, a highly personalized and local online program with strong student/staff connections, incorporating recovery programs into education, supporting Somali speaking students with rich ELL support, developing arts with music and video studios, and growing character and leadership in academy that partners with the US Army and offers some of the best opportunities around.
BIG & SMALL
Working at MTCS offers you get the best of big and small. We are the largest charter school network in the state which means great benefits and opportunities, but our schools have small class sizes, and lots of opportunity to connect with each student.
LEADERSHIP
As a charter school we are run by a teacher majority. Teachers and parents run each of our schools and that means MTCS can stay focused on what students need. It is also an opportunity for you to be part of the Board of Directors and lead the direction of your school.
DEDICATED
Our work is to keep students learning and in school all the way to graduation. We are a trauma informed school, committed to equity, and restorative justice in every learning space. Through a weekly professional development, we invest in staff, dedicated to supporting your excellence in becoming the best you can be for students.
NIMBLE
Because of all of these reasons, MTCS is able to respond quickly to the changing needs of students and the world. During the quarantine, and with whatever needs the future will hold, MTCS is uniquely prepared because we already know how to do both online and in-school education for sixteen years. We make it work.
