The USU GEAR UP program supports the graduating classes of 2021-2024. Students at GVHS are currently in 9th - 12th grades at GVHS. As the students move through the grades, GEAR UP goes with them, through high school graduation, and into their first year of college.

The USU STARS! GEAR UP program is a partnership program between Utah State University and the South Sanpete School District. USU GEAR UP at SSSD encourages and supports students with programs to help make college a reality.
