Samone Lumley has been a part of the METCO program since she was in kindergarten, traveling from her home in Dorchester every morning to attend school in Bostonâs suburbs. Her father was also in METCO, as were three of her four siblings. It has always been a part of her life.
But Lumley, who attends Wellesley High School, never knew the full history behind the school integration program. That changed last spring, when through a paid internship she and seven other METCO students started working on a project about the programâs history and the struggle for equitable education in Boston.
