Massachusetts Educational Opportunity Program (MEOP)
at Massasoit Community College
The Massachusetts Educational Opportunity Program (MEOP) at Massasoit has been committed to helping students prepare for college through comprehensive after school programming since 1996.  Participants come to Massasoit’s Brockton campus on Thursday afternoons for enrichment activities in four core areas; “College Knowledge”, “Cultural Literacy”, “Career Exploration” and  “Cultivation of Character” (leadership development). Families are a part of MEOP as well through parent workshops, children’s activities, field trips and recognition ceremonies. The mission of MEOP is to promote early awareness of higher education opportunities and encourage participants to continue their education after high school.
