Metro High School provides students with a variety of learning opportunities to meet the Cedar Rapids Community School District's graduation requirements.
Metro History
In 1974, the Cedar Rapids Community School District established an alternative high school in a red brick firehouse. Metro began, with 3 teachers and 40 students, to provide an alternative high school classroom setting. By 1978, the school expanded to include an additional campus, and in 1982 both locations merged into a newer, more spacious building at 1212 7th Street SE. Philosophy
