TRIO Upward Bound (UB) is a pre-college program that not only assists high school students in completing high school but to also pursue and completing post-secondary education. UB teaches students about college entrance exams, college choices, preparing for college while still in high school, and so much more.
TRIO UB offers a wide range of services that help students gain the knowledge, skills, and confidence to successfully graduate high school.
The first of three recruitment meeting is this Saturday! During this meeting, we will talk more about the program and the benefits of joining, get to know you a little more, and host a student panel of current TRIO UB members. The panel is a great time for you and your parent to ask questions and get students' perspectives and experience with the program. We are so excited to see you this Saturday!
If you have not already, be sure to submit your Interest/Permission form before Saturday! (This is the pink form that you received during the presentation.) If you would like to complete it online click the link below. https://bit.ly/35Axtuq
