Upward Bound is an educational program sponsored by Bluegrass Community & Technical College and funded by the U.S. Department of Education. It serves high school students who have the potential to succeed in college. The goal of Upward Bound is to increase the rates at which participants enroll in and graduate from institutions of post-secondary education.
Students from our program are selected from Boyle, Clark, and Fayette County Public Schools. They must meet income standards set by the federal government, be a potential first-generation college student, have the desire to attend college, and be in the 9th, 10th, or 11th grade.
Upward Bound is a year round program. It consists of two parts, the Academic Year Program, and the Summer Program. During the Academic Year Program an Upward Bound Counselor will visit the students at the school once a month. Students receive tutoring to help with schoolwork, and one Saturday a month they visit Bluegrass Community & Technical College for academic activities called Return Trips. The Return Trips can be a workshop, cultural enrichment activity, and college visits.
