Math, engineering, technology and science week designated--governor to proclaim.
9.138. The governor shall annually issue a proclamation setting apart the first week of March as "Math, Engineering, Technology and Science (METS) Week", and recommending to the people of the state that the week be appropriately observed through activities that will result in an increased awareness of the importance of advancing community interest in math, engineering, technology, and science programs, and promote METS careers statewide in order to advance Missouri's workforce. The proclamation shall also recommend that the week be observed with appropriate activities in public schools. Public and private involvement in METS week demonstrates that fostering and encouraging interest in the sciences is a major factor in determining growth and success in school and will help students develop a focus on technology-based careers after graduation.
