Welcome to GEAR UP
Attention Current 7th Grade Students and Parents:
SBCISD is proud to announce that GEAR UP is here. GEAR UP is a program that will follow our scholars through their first year of college. Students will be taking a participation form home to enroll in the program along with a photo release authorization. Also, join SBCISD's GEAR UP Google Classroom with code kpwxfjq and get all the GEAR UP news hot off the press.
We look forward to servicing students with presentations, tutoring, mentoring, field trips to visit colleges and universities, and much more. Stay tuned at the start of the year for a Family Meeting where you can meet your GEAR UP Coordinators and discuss the program's benefits.
