Upward Bound

Text Box: Well, we are off and running into the new school year!  This summer was  awesome!  As we look to the 2009-2010 school year, I am feeling very optimistic about Upward Bound and all of you.  We will kick off our first Saturday Seminar on September 12, 2009.  This is an opportunity for us to review program expectations and make plans for an exciting year.  Come prepared to discuss your goals and plans for the 2009-10 school year!
I would like to ask for the assistance of some of you as the Upward Bound staff begins to recruit new students to the program.  If you know of someone who you think would be a great addition to the Upward Bound family, have them pick up an application from their high school counselor.  I hope you are telling your friends about this great opportunity that you have been afforded through this program.

Lastly, as we begin making plans for this next year, we will kick off our fall fundraiser with candle sells.  We will be working with a representative from Home Interiors, so everyone please do your best to make this fundraiser a huge success.  You will receive the information at the September Saturday Seminar.

As always, if there is anything you need or anything I can do, don’t hesitate to e-mail me at drose@indycc.edu or call me at 620.332.5452 or 1.800.842.6063 Ext. 5452.
