Full Name of Child (please print)
Upward Bound is a federally funded program and as such, we must meet federal requirements
in order to continue to secure our funding. Funding is contingent upon submitting an annual
performance report on all current students and prior participants.
As the crux of Upward Bound is academic based, we must provide this information on every
child and therefore rely on academic records.
Academic records include but are not limited to official High School transcripts, as well as
information obtained from Power School, (the Bridgeport Board of Education (SIS) Student
Information System), or whatever student portal your child’s school utilizes.
IMPORTANT: Please be assured that this information is entered into a confidential
database and all paperwork is destroyed.
This release form remains valid for a period of five years even if your child has left the
program due to federal regulations, which require grantees (Sacred Heart University’s
Upward Bound Program) to provide information on participants who have left the program.
