“A good process produces good results.”

RISE Prep teachers believe that the most important teaching moments lie in the steps and work leading up to a scholar’s answer. Therefore, there is great pride in, and thought given to, the process of learning which will drive meaningful and sustaining results for scholars.

🎓

According to the National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP) scores that were released this morning, it is clear that the COVID-19 pandemic has significantly and negatively impacted student learning outcomes nationally, in historic and unprecedented ways.

At RISE Prep, we know that rebuilding our learning community through innovative and engaging instruction, is the first step in rebuilding exceptional academic results.👩🏾‍🔬🎓

New year, new faces, new curriculums, same mission. Thrilled to welcome back the RISE Prep school community for the 2022-23 school year!
