Responsibility, Initiative, Success, Empowerment...
RISE stands for RESPONSIBILITY INITIATIVE SUCCESS EMPOWERMENT. It is a federally funded after school program within the Nita M. Lowey 21st Century Community Learning Centers (NML 21st CCLC). RISE is designed to increase academic performance, improve student engagement and behavior, and offer families of participating students literacy-based opportunities. We strongly encourage families to participate in their child’s learning and offer parent events throughout the school year.
