What is Dare to Dream?
The Dare to Dream Academies allows students from migrant families to spend an entire week on the University of Washington (UW) campus. This program gives students a glimpse into college life, allowing them to experience firsthand what possibilities are available to them when it comes to achieving a higher education. The academies aim to inspire students to perform well in high school while simultaneously creating a plan for beyond high school.
The week-long Dare to Dream Summer Academies are made possible by a grant provided by the Office of Superintendent of Public Instruction’s (OSPI) – Migrant Education Program (MEP). With the assistance of the Association of Washington State Principals (AWSP), students can receive high school credit for participating in the academies. It is also an opportunity to hire past College Assistance Migrant Program (CAMP) students and Dare to Dream participants as mentors to work with students throughout the week and share their experiences in their trajectory to the UW.
