Providing educational opportunities to assist motivated first generation and low-income teens in creating the futures they imagine.
Our mission at Upward Bound is to provide fundamental support to participants in their preparation or post-secondary education. We provide opportunities for participants to succeed in secondary school and ultimately in higher education. Our goal is to increase the rates at which participants enroll in and graduate from institutions of post-secondary education.
We provide academic counseling, financial aid advice, and education/leadership opportunities to students attending Burlington High School and Winooski High School.
