RISE stands for Relationships, Instruction, Support and the Equipping of our post-secondary students. Our college summer program, designed specifically for our high school graduates, is offered in partnership with South Mountain Community College.
Students identify a post-secondary plan to either continue with college, attend a trade school or certificate program, join the military, or enter the workforce.
Our primary goal is to expose students to college through the completion of a summer program where they gain college credits while deciding their next steps in life.
For the younger kids, our staff has started a summer camp where our high school leaders get an opportunity to be more intentional with their leadership and life skills.
They lead summer camp for the elementary students that they worked with throughout the school year. This summer program is open to all students (K-8) and is held at one of our partner high schools. Those enrolled are offered a free breakfast and lunch daily.
