GEAR UP KY at Morehead State University currently serves Bath, Powell, Fleming, and East Carter County students. We began working with these students in the 2005-2006 school year when the first group (cohort) was in 7th grade. Over the next two years we added a new 7th grade cohort in each county. We then follow these students as they progress through middle and high school, so that our students are currently in 8th, 9th, and 10th grades.
The following are examples of some activities we are doing in our schools during the 2008-2009 school year.
