Bynum School is in jeopardy of losing our paper recycle bins because the amount of paper collected is down. Our recycling program not only gives us a way to become more active within our local community, but also gives us a way to conserve landfill space, educate youth on the importance of recycling, create a greener community and raise money in the process! So be sure to send your recycled paper items to school or drop them in our recycle bins located behind the library.

Bynum ISD Part Of GEAR UP
http://www.bynumisd.net/users/0001/images/Gear-image.jpg

Bynum ISD is proud to announce that it is part the Gaining Early Awareness and Readiness for Undergraduate Program (GEAR UP). GEAR UP is a federally funded program administered in Central Texas by the Education Service Center Region 12.  The funding was approved in 2011 and is expected to continue for seven years.  The program will follow a cohort of 4,000 students from the classes of 2017 and 2018 from 23 school districts in Central Texas.  The program serves these students as they progress through middle and high school and enter their first year of college. ESC Region 12 is partnering with a number of colleges, universities, and area businesses and programs to provide these services.

WHY IS GEAR UP IMPORTANT?

GEAR UP believes that college education is possible for all students, regardless of economic background.

The Purpose
GEAR UP is designed to help more young Americans stay in school, develop good study skills and take the right courses to go to college.

The Plan

The program supports a cohort group of students from the classes of 2017 and 2018, as well as
their families, to increase their college and career readiness through:

  • preparing academically
  • college planning
  • financial aid planning
The grant serves these students through high school.
