Bound For College Students Hit the Road for a Transformative Summer Tour

Earlier this summer, 35 driven students embarked on an unforgettable multi-day college tour, visiting Florida State University (FSU), Florida A&M University (FAMU), and the University of Central Florida (UCF).


Representing four of our Partner Schools — Village Academy, Atlantic High School, Santaluces High School, and Boynton Beach High School — these students came together for an experience designed to inspire and empower. Along the way, they explored vibrant campuses, connected with Bound For College alumni, and gained valuable insight into college applications and what college life is really like.


From meaningful conversations to walking through university quads, every moment of the tour sparked new possibilities.

STEM Summer Camp Sparks Curiosity

at Village Academy!

Village Academy buzzed with energy as 45 students participated in our exciting two-week STEM Summer Camp! Designed to ignite curiosity and a love for science, the camp offered hands-on learning and unforgettable experiences for our middle school students.


The first week welcomed rising 6th graders, while the second week focused on rising 7th and 8th graders. Each session was packed with interactive experiments that captivated students and deepened their understanding of how the world works—from chemistry reactions to engineering challenges.

To cap off each week, students took a field trip to Lion Country Safari, where they explored animal habitats and learned about conservation efforts. It was the perfect blend of science, discovery, and fun!


We’re proud to support the next generation of STEM leaders and can't wait to see what these young scientists do next!

Celebrating Our Viner Scholars!

We’re thrilled to share that 10 outstanding Bound For College students have been awarded the prestigious Viner Scholarship this year!


The celebration was made even more meaningful thanks to the support of Bound For College alumni and current Viner Scholars, many of whom returned to volunteer, share their journeys, and inspire the next generation of recipients.

This special moment showcased the strength of our Bound For College community and the lasting impact of giving back. Congratulations to our newest Viner Scholars — your future is bright, and we’re excited to cheer you on every step of the way!
