Wyoming Schools at a Crossroads: GEAR UP Wyoming Makes College Possible

GEAR UP Wyoming was recently featured for the success it has brought students, families, and communities throughout the state of Wyoming. The article includes two student spotlights where they discuss how GEAR UP helped them. It also gives an overview of some of the services GEAR UP Wyoming provides. “It’s a really important program to give these kids a glimmer of hope,” Jordyn Chandler, GEAR UP student programming coordinator for Wyoming said. “A lot of them have been in a cycle of generational poverty with their whole families. We’re just showing them there is a way out. It doesn’t have to mean you are riddled with student debt. There are a lot of resources available to them, and there’s a lot of people who want to help them succeed.”
