METS is happy to welcome Meghan Connelly as the new advisor to the Lake Region schools! Meghan has been helping out in the schools this summer, so if you see her, say hello!

I am very thrilled to be the new METS Advisor in Lake Region High School and Middle School!

I graduated from the University of Maine in 2015 with my Bachelor’s Degree in Elementary Education, and again this past May with my Master’s Degree in Student Development in Higher Education. For the past two years, I have been an Academic Advisor for the College of Education and Human Development, where I helped students through course selection, program requirements, and preparation for teacher certification upon graduation. During this time, I taught college success courses for first-year students, guiding them through the transition from high school to college. In addition, I was an academic mentor for students-athletes, where I taught intervention strategies such as successful study skills, organizational habits, and time management techniques.

I have a passion working with students of all ages and from all backgrounds, providing them with academic, career, and educational advising and support, and I look forward to beginning this journey on the METS Team!”
