SRC is designed to model the schedule of a four-year university with all of the materials and expectations. For three weeks in July, 37 North County students prepared for the SAT/PSAT. They dove into math skill building, learned guidelines for writing a personal statement, resumes and applying to universities. The outcome of a strict academic format gave students a hard look into the summer theme, “If I Plan to Learn, I Must Learn to Plan.” Students received a final report card with course grades and A-G requirement advising. The Upward Bound Programs goal is to participate completely, showing academic advancement, and be responsible for successfully completing a four -year college education.
