Gear Up

Gear Up (Gaining Early Awareness and Readiness for Undergraduate Programs), is a National Initiative to encourage high expectations for our students by staying focused and getting on track for college. The Gear Up team will provide a host of FREE services such as tutoring, mentoring, workshops for students and families, college and career fairs, job shadowing opportunities, college visits, engaging assemblies and much more! 

Parents, we cannot do this without you! Our efforts will not end at the end of middle school.  We will be working closely with your student(s) to see them through to their high school graduation! The Gear Up team will provide support through the college application and financial aid process. Please look out for future announcements from the Gear Up Team. Let us work together to GEAR our students up for SUCCESS!
