Adalene Carter, Director
Upward Bound is a pre-college program for TRIO-eligible students attending high schools in thirteen target schools in the East Texas area.
It provides intensive academic, cultural, and personal support that includes Saturdays and occasional evening activities, a six-week summer residential component, and a pre-college experience through the Bridge Program. The program serves at least 75 students from 13 high schools in the East Texas area. The Upward Bound project seeks to accomplish its goals in large part by helping students take advantage of the education provided by their high schools, along with fostering community service projects.
