The MET

The MET is a charter high school tucked into Sacramento's 95818 zip code — one of the city's most charming and walkable neighborhoods, full of tree-lined streets, local coffee shops, and a strong sense of community identity. The school takes a project-based, real-world learning approach that tends to draw families who want something beyond the traditional classroom experience, particularly those whose kids thrive with more autonomy and hands-on engagement. Academic scores are modest, so families prioritizing test performance may want to look elsewhere, but for students who learn differently or want a tighter-knit school culture, The MET offers a genuinely different path through high school.
