Mission

The Upward Bound Program provides opportunities for participants to succeed in their precollege performance and ultimately in their higher education pursuits. With a strong emphasis on academic success, the Upward Bound Program provides students with preparatory courses to increase their opportunities to excel in high school and prepares them for post-secondary education. By implementing student development theories, it is our desire that each student will experience social, intellectual and individual growth upon the completion of the program.
