During that meeting, a comprehensive assessment of the student's past, present and future desires is used to establish a student-centered plan (MAP) that serves as a foundation of the student's Menta programming. A guiding principle of Menta is 'we do not give up', while also holding our students and staff to high expectations. The educational offerings at a Menta program provide students with a quality education that is designed to nurture and enhance the skills and maturity needed to meet the challenges of being productive adults and citizens in a rapidly changing 21st-century world.
