3 Signature Program Goals and Expectations The mission of the MTS Signature Program is to provide enhanced academic challenges through a rigorous multidisciplinary curriculum, opportunities to explore career interests in the fields of Mathematics, Technology, and Science and to have real life experiences which help members develop and grow as a mature young adults. One of the primary goals of the MTS Signature Program is to build the students motivation, self direction, and independence. This special program has been designed to offer an extra opportunity beyond the classroom curriculum where members can explore a career interest and profession through the Career & Reaction Speaker series, complete an independent project in an MTS area of interest, competitions, internship panel presentations and an internship. Students wishing to graduate with MTS Signature Program distinction must be responsible for knowing the program requirements and completing them according to timelines designated. Special Notes About Coursework All Computer and Technology courses fulfill the Signature Program requirement for the additional technology credit. Students are to enroll in Designing Technological Solutions. This will provide an exposure to programming which is highly valued by employers. It does meet the State of Maryland graduation requirement. Digital Art does count as a technology credit for the Signature Program. College Molecular Genetics (double period) and Mount St. Mary s summer program can have their credits apply to the Signature Program in the following ways: If the 2 credits from Molecular Genetics are counted for the MTS Signature Program requirements, then Mt. St. Mary s cannot count for the MTS Internship. If Mt. St. Mary s is used for the MTS Internship, then only 1 credit from Molecular Genetics may be used for the MTS Signature Program requirements. Four math credits (or completion of Calculus) must be taken in high school. Additional high school math courses will be counted as one of the four extra courses. It is strongly encouraged that students consider taking statistics. In a world of data, having skills in statistics will enhance one s career opportunities. Communication MyMCPS Starting in , MCPS will have a feature in mymcps that will replace Edline. This site will allow parents to check in with student progress. Google Classroom Students will be provided an access code to enter their MTS Google Classroom. This site is only accessible to people using their MCPS Google account. In the classroom students will be able to collabo-rate virtually, receive feedback and view Program point accumulations. REMIND (previously REMIND101) (A process for receiving text messages) Knowing that is not the main communication tool for many, there may be many students and parents experiencing a delay in accessing updated information. By using Remind the coordinator can send a text message with a notice to check mymcps or the Google Classroom and/or with a detailed message. To register for Remind, you will be provided directions to access through a mymcps invitation when the MCPS opens the site. 3
