GEAR UP is a federally funded, six-year program that works in partnership with Chicago Public Schools to prepare Chicago students for success in post-secondary education.

In order to support students’ quest for a postsecondary education, the Chicago GEAR UP Alliance has designated six major program components: 1) in-school instruction; 2) Saturday and after school programs including early high school credit classes; 3) summer programs; 4) college readiness activities; 5) parent seminars and workshops; and 6) professional development for teachers and school staff.

Programs include direct service to students, parent programs, and professional development. See GEAR UP facts.
