GEAR UP GRANT SURVEY 

As a parent, you want your child to grow up prepared for the future. This can mean many things, but to most of us it means making sure your child is properly educated to enter the career he or she desires and arming him or her with the life skills needed to make responsible adult decisions.The primary goal of GEAR UP is to ensure all students in Oklahoma are prepared to succeed in postsecondary education. The GEAR UP program is built on two broad college access components: scholarship funding and early intervention initiatives. Dickson Schools is one of several local school districts and higher education institutions throughout Oklahoma to have been awarded GEAR UP partnership grants. And we need your feedback! 

If your child is in grades 6-12, please complete the following survey by April 1st:

Award Winners  2006  2007  2008  2009   2010

In January of 2002, the No Child Left Behind Act of 2001 (NCLB) became law. Title II, Part B of this legislation authorizes a Mathematics and Science Partnerships (MSP) competitive grant program. The intent of this program is to encourage institutions of higher education, local school districts, elementary schools, and secondary schools to participate in professional development activities that increase the subject matter knowledge and teaching skills of mathematics and science teachers. Professional development activities must be sustained, intensive, classroom focused, and aligned with the state standards (Priority Academic Student Skills [PASS]) , local standards and mathematics and science curricula. These activities must result in a demonstrable and measurable improvement in K-12 student academic achievement in mathematics and science.
