体育菠菜大平台 News: Kearney Bound program creates a path to college for first-generation students
"It’s a question nearly every high schooler faces: What do you want to do with your life? Jonathan Madison still remembers the first time he was asked. The topic came up during class, and he didn’t have a great response. That was his “aha” moment."
"When you don’t know what to do or where to go in college, your mentor or your peers in Kearney Bound have the answer for you or know where to direct you if they don’t have the answer."
