The Upward Bound (UB) Program Project EDGE and Project ACE provide explicit academic support to eligible Edgewater High School and Apopka Highschool students, 9th thru 12th grade, so they may complete high school, enroll in college, and successfully obtain a college degree. Funded by the U. S. Department of Education’s TRIO Programs Division, qualifying participants are from families who meet federal income guidelines and who are first- generation college students, which means neither parent obtained a four-year college degree.
