Summer Bridge
Can you believe it is almost time for our high school Summer Bridge programs? Planning has been happening for a few months now and we know that Paradigm Shift will be making an appearance at each event!
The schedule is:
May 9 & 10 - MCHS
May 22 & 23 - PVHS
May 24 & 25 - CCSD
Our colleges also offer programs for incoming freshmen. These programs can be part of the institutional orientation or FIT programs but we also provide GEAR UP exclusive content to start or continue the relationships with our students on our campuses.
NSHE Family Night
During the same week that we participated in all of the southern Nevada College and Career Fairs, the NSHE team also hosted a Family Night for GEAR UP seniors (or any other students that wanted to attend). Families were treated to pizza and cookies. We also had swag bags for students and drawings for parents. It was a small audience but that did not stop our FYCAs from putting on a great presentation with a wealth of information! Special thanks to Morgan Haynes, CSN FYCA for arranging the rooms and for Jason Brick for attending on behalf of GBC!
Tech Trekkers Return!
For the second year, we are scheduling UNLV's Tech Trekker program to conduct hands-on science activities at each of our southern high schools. In the north, also for the second year, the UNR College of Engineering held a similar event at Mineral County High School. These events were scheduled for March and April. These activities were really enjoyed by the students last year. The teachers liked them as well!
