ACADEMICS

Rigorous curricula, coupled with teacher expertise, provide a high-quality academic experience for scholars.  Grade-level teachers work together closely with each other and with instructional experts called Instructional Coaches to ensure all scholars are being held to the same high expectations.

ENRICHMENT

Core subjects are only one part of your scholar’s development.  Classes such as dance, art, music, band, PE, Spanish, and digital literacy expand your scholar’s skills as well.  In addition to these enrichment classes, RISE also offers various after-school clubs and interscholastic sports.

FAMILY ENGAGEMENT

We want you to be a part of our School Family!  We’d love you to volunteer, access your scholar’s grades via the Parent Portal, communicate with teachers through TalkingPoints, engage with us on Facebook and Instagram, join a tour, and more!  RISE believes partnerships with families are critical.

OPERATIONS

In addition to academics, we know smooth logistics are important to a school and your family.  Learn more about bus routes, our free breakfast and lunch program, uniform expectations, before and after-school care, and more.

Seats are filling fast, but there’s still time to apply!

Waitlist applications are still being submitted for the ‘24-’25 school year. Waitlist applications will be offered spots as seats become available.

Current scholars do not need to apply. Simply complete the Intent to Return survey by Friday, April 19th.

Siblings of current scholars DO need to submit a lottery application for the ‘24-’25 school year, though they will receive preference through the waitlist process.
