MTS HIGH SCHOOL

MTS HIGH SCHOOL is a Title I public charter high school that is part of the Minnesota Transitions Charter Sch school district, located in MINNEAPOLIS, MN with about 219 students offering grade levels from 7th Grade to 12th Grade. A Title I school provides supplemental financial assistance to school districts for children from low-income families. Its purpose is to provide all children significant opportunity to receive a fair, equitable, and high-quality education. With about 23 teachers, MTS HIGH SCHOOL has a student/teacher ratio of about 9:1. The national average for public schools is about 15:1. A lower student/teacher ratio is a key factor that determines how much a teacher can devote his/her time to each individual student thus improving, or reducing (in the event of a higher student/teacher ratio) the attention each student is given for their educational needs.

MTS HIGH SCHOOL (part of the Minnesota Transitions Charter School district) is a tuition-free public charter school located in the Seward neighborhood of Minneapolis. The school is designed for students in grades 9–12 who are seeking a non-traditional, supportive academic environment. By emphasizing a flexible approach to learning, the school aims to help students who may have struggled in larger, conventional school settings to earn their diplomas and prepare for life after graduation.

The school is known for its focus on a "small school" culture, which allows for more personalized attention and stronger relationships between students and staff. Their curriculum often integrates hands-on learning, credit recovery options, and a commitment to meeting the individual social-emotional needs of their students. By providing a structured yet inclusive atmosphere, MTS HIGH SCHOOL strives to engage students who benefit from an alternative educational path that prioritizes both academic achievement and personal development.
