(KLZA)-- Representatives of the Upward Bound Math and Science program at Northwest Missouri State University in Maryville will be visiting with Falls City High School students on Wednesday.
Karen Wood, Assistant Director of Upward Bound Math & Science explains the 6-week summer program is for students in grades 9 –11 interested in a career related to math or science who have taken and passed college prep math and science classes each year.
During the program students will live on the Northwest Missouri State University campus in Maryville, attending enrichment math and science classes not usually available in a local high school.
There is no cost to the student or family. All expenses are paid. Mileage to and from the campus is reimbursed to the students and participants earn a stipend for each of the six weeks. In addition, students completing the six-week program will keep the supplies provided including a Ti-Nspire CX handheld calculator.
Wood says this is also a good experience for parents who will soon be sending their kids off to college.
The program will be June 4th through Saturday, July 16th.
Interested students will be able to learn more about the Upward Bound Math and Science Program Wednesday afternoon from 2:42 – 3:32 p-m at Falls City High School.
