Project Description

M-CUBED is initiative to help connect MPS students with the people, resources and skills that they need to go on to college at MATC and/or UWM. With the help of M-CUBED, we hope that the young people of Milwaukee will stay, learn and work to improve our city for the next generation of learners. This initiative requires the commitment of students, educators, administrators, parents, and the greater Milwaukee Community.
