Metro High School will commemorate its 50th anniversary with a special celebration on Thursday, May 30th. The event, open to the community, will take place from 4:00 PM to 8:00 PM, with a highlight presentation of the 50th anniversary award scheduled for 5:30 PM. Metro High School’s motto, “Mastering educational tasks regardless of obstacles,” has been its guiding light, and has made the school a leader in the state for alternative high school learning. This milestone event not only honors the school’s past achievements but also looks forward to future successes.

In honor of this significant milestone, Metro High School was selected by NASA’s Office of STEM Engagement as one of fifty recipients nationwide to receive a NASA Artemis I Moon Tree seedling. This tree, whose seed journeyed around the moon on the Artemis I mission and returned to Earth in 2022, will be planted on Metro’s grounds, symbolizing growth and inspiration for decades to come.
