Math Engineering Science Achievement (MESA)
Our Linked Learning CTE grade level electives allow Webster students the opportunity to develop real life application of math and science skills in creating, engineering, and designing projects to solve real world problems by using competition projects hosted by MESA within our curriculum. These skill sets provide our students with the experience to become competitively eligible for academically rigorous course work in high school, and college.
UCLA partners with Webster to provide individual academic plans, study skills training, hands-on math and science competitions, career and college exploration, incentive awards, parent leadership development, and professional development opportunities.
Why MESA?
As the world economy changes from an industrial focus to technological focus, it is important to prepare our students to be successful. That means introducing them to applications of Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) in their classes and through hands on projects. MESA serves that purpose.
