Our Hampton 9th and 10th-grade scholars were able to visit 4 colleges! We also had 40 additional 9th & 10th Graders stay overnight to visit the University of Oklahoma and Langston University. It is always a great opportunity to visit prospective colleges. Our scholars enjoyed their visit and getting to see the campuses! #UpliftHamptonScholarCulture
Great Afternoon, Hampton Families. Today was such an amazing day for Uplift Hampton. We here at Hampton had our Ground Breaking Ceremony for our Track Facility. From CMO to former Athletes, former and current Coaches, and our sponsor's PMSI, Hampton Cheer Squad (Primary-High School), it was an eventful day. South Dallas has been on the map, and our Hampton Athletics are very well known. We can't wait to see what we will achieve! #UpliftHamptonScholarCulture
