We had the pleasure of welcoming students from the Upward Bound Program to the Medina Police Department and Medina Fire Department!
Upward Bound is a federally funded college-preparation program that helps students build the academic skills, confidence, and resources they need to succeed in high school, prepare for college, and achieve their higher education goals. Through mentorship, academic support, career exploration, and enrichment opportunities, the program empowers students to reach their full potential.
Whether these students choose careers in law enforcement, firefighting, healthcare, education, business, or another path entirely, we hope today’s visit showed them that success comes in many forms and that every career has the opportunity to make a positive impact.
Thank you to the Upward Bound Program for spending part of your day with us. We wish each of these students the very best as they continue working toward their educational and career goals.
