The MFPS Program prepares students to face the challenges of the coming century by helping them to think critically, creatively, and futuristically. The program teaches elementary and secondary students to apply problem solving skills to global and community problems. It opens doors to students' imaginations, leading youngsters to discover rich and varied ways of thinking and to experience the satisfaction of resolving difficult problems with unique solutions. Skills learned can be applied to any curriculum throughout a lifetime. By dealing with problems set in the future, students learn to deal with issues they will encounter as leaders of tomorrow.
