Academics
Rise Prep’s rigorous academic curriculum is designed to challenge you. But it is also tailored to our unique group of scholars who are situated in a particular place and live in a particular moment in history. Put in the effort to wrestle with ideas and expand your knowledge and you will find that what you learn at Rise is relevant to you. Meet our challenge and you will not only be prepared for college, you’ll grow deeper into your full humanity.
A commitment to the success of our scholars
Rise’s extended school day allows us to offer a rich support system that ensures every motivated student is able to succeed. Support strategies for students include a homework help period, daily office hours, academic enrichment, and study skill workshops. Mentoring is built into the extended day with the help of members and leaders in the community.
