About Upward Bound

We are a Federally funded program that began in the Civil Rights era of the Great Society implemented by Lyndon B Johnson.

We are a college-going program for first-generation and low-income students and include a 21st Century Education focus on social and environmental justice, media literacy, and a commitment to critical thinking and dialogue.

We are a daily elective, with weekend workshops/field trips and a mandatory six week summer program.

We believe that Education is transformational.

Eligibility

Students in grades 9-12 are eligible to apply for participation in the Upward Bound program.
