National GEAR UP Week

[cid:image001.png@01DB0DAF.C2646980] This national week of immersion around college, career, and military readiness is designed to ensure students are aware of their postsecondary options, the necessary preparation, and the resources available to support their desired pursuits. In DeSoto ISD, there are two GEAR UP cohorts - College-Driven GEAR UP and Next Gen GEAR UP. The grants are focused on students who will graduate in the years 2028 and 2029, and this year’s seniors, the DeSoto High School Class of 2025, respectively. The week will consist of daily activities, specialized student programming, and campus and family connection sessions for each cohort all designed to connect and ignite the flame of lifelong learning in the hearts and minds of our secondary-level DeSoto ISD Eagles by providing each student and their families with immersive, continuous support to create a strong plan for their future.
