Save the Date! Advocacy Day 2025
Thursday, March 20, 2025 from 9 am to 1 pm
METCO relies on state funding, requiring advocacy and approval from the state legislature. It is essential to advocate for this funding to both maintain and enhance the impact of METCO’s programs. Become an advocate and ensure that METCO’s school integration impact continues!
What is METCO's Budget Ask?
For our FY26 budget ask, we are advocating for $33M to account for inflation, transportation, cost of living, programming, and racial equity initiatives.
Contact your legislators: email, call, send letters, and set up individual appointments!
Share Our Needs
Tell your legislators that funding METCO will go towards:
- Supporting students with targeted academic, college, career, and social emotional supports
- Meeting increased transportation and special education expenses
- Keeping up with inflation, costs of living, and staff retention
Thank you for your ongoing support of METCO!
