Feather River College Upward Bound reports a small group of Upward Bound participants and staff attended Wildcat Preview at California State University, Chico. The event serves as the college’s fall open house. Advisor Patty Llamas and student assistant Bree Roper accompanied student participants, who said they were amazed by the beauty of the Chico State campus in fall and the number of student clubs. Upward Bound provides support to participants in their preparation for college entrance. The program provides opportunities for participants to succeed in their precollege performance and ultimately in their higher education pursuits. Upward Bound serves high school students from families whose taxable income does not exceed federal TRiO guidelines and from which neither parent/step-parent nor guardian has completed a four-year college degree.
