Parent Zone

The Parent Zone is where UH GEAR UP parents can find the latest information about their children's progress in various UH GEAR UP programs, information about what UH GEAR UP can do for your child, and you can also connect with other UH GEAR UP parents.

Parents can check back right here at the Parent Zone for information on upcoming UH GEAR UP family events, access to your child's UH GEAR UP program grades and online coursework.

You will also be able to connect with fellow parents, whether it's to arrange carpools to family events, or just to "talk stories" about your kids and their "road to college."
