GEAR UP is all about helping students see what’s possible after high school by building awareness of college, careers, and the steps it takes to reach their goals. Last week, a group of our 8th-grade Raiders had the opportunity to visit Liberty University, tour the campus, and get a firsthand look at what college life can be like. Experiences like this help students begin thinking about their futures and understanding that college and career opportunities are within their reach.

Today’s Raider is tomorrow’s college student, career professional, and community leader. Every Raider, Every Day!
