The Metropolitan Expeditionary Learning School, erected in 2010, is part of a campus of three schools, located on Metropolitan Avenue.
The facility is co-directed by Patrick Finley and Damon McCord, and is designed to create a different type of curriculum for students, where hands on experience and learning take precedence over instruction. The school is 4 floors of classrooms, with multiple gyms and cafeterias, music programs, art classes and more. Students are challenged to interact with each other and the community and complete projects to fulfill graduation requirements.
The school shares many of its facilities with Queens Metropolitan High School and PS 233Q.
