Special & Summer
Programs
Horizons-Upward
Bound is a program that provides educational opportunity for
students from families of limited means who come from the public
school system in Detroit, Pontiac, Highland Park and Berkley.
Horizons-Upward Bound has been active on the campus for the past 30
years. Currently twenty-five HUB students attend Cranbrook
Kingswood. Students generally enter the program at the end of the
eighth grade. Candidates are nominated by their schools, tested in
reading and mathematics, and interviewed by members of the HUB
staff. They are measured also against federal guidelines which
include age, income and need for academic support. Those selected
make a commitment to stay in the program through their high school
years. Students must maintain minimum grade point averages and
participation is reviewed annually.
The HUB
program is active twelve months a year. During the summer there is
a six-week residential phase on the Cranbrook Kingswood campus.
Along with a strenuous academic program, there is cultural
enrichment, college counseling and career guidance available.
During the school year the students and staff meet on Saturdays at
Cleveland Middle School in Detroit for additional tutorial
sessions.
