Every child deserves to receive a valuable education regardless of their position in life. Toledo Rise and Shine opened Rise and Shine Academy, a free community-based school committed to create a powerful learning community centered on core values and shared commitment to academic excellence.

Hola! 👋🏽 At Rise & Shine Academy, our leaders are learning more than just the basics, they’re expanding their language skills and discovering a whole new way to communicate! 📚✨

Learning Spanish gives our students the opportunity to explore another language, culture, and perspective while building skills they can carry with them for years to come.
