Background:
M³ (pronounced "m-cubed") is a collaborative partnership among the three largest public education institutions in Milwaukee which includes Milwaukee Public Schools (MPS), Milwaukee Area Technical College (MATC), and the University of Wisconsin Milwaukee (UWM). M³ seeks to transform the future of Milwaukee through education.

The M³ College Connections program is a dual enrollment program for MPS high school students. Students in this program attend classes at both the MATC and UWM campuses to earn high school and college credits.

A team of administrators and instructors from MPS, MATC, and UWM meet bi-weekly to review the progress of students, problem solve logistical issues, and to adjust the programs or individual pathway designs.
