ALBANY, Ga. (WALB) - Dougherty County’s GEAR UP program is getting a boost this summer from a federal grant.
The program follows students from sixth grade to high school, offering them academic and extracurricular help.
Dougherty County is currently serving its first class of GEAR UP, students. They do a lot in the seven years with the group.
“We provide academic tutoring, access to STEM education, leadership skills, anything that will ensure that they are successful once they graduate high school and step foot on a campus, in the military, or join the workforce,” said Dr. Alana Simmons, the program director.
