Enhance Curriculum Video conferencing equipment allows school districts to offer courses that previously were not offered because of low enrollments or lack of certified staff in particular curriculum areas. The network allows districts to share both students and staff without transportation costs and delays. Community Education With the use of the fiber optic system, each community can share educational classes and programming. Community members can partake in a wide variety of classes and do not have to travel any further than their local high school. Post-Secondary Instruction CMETS has the capacity to offer college level courses to area high school students through multiple local colleges. Classes are live, interactive, and full college credit is available.
