Together with families, neighbors, and community partners, Rise Academy is creating a world where students have access to excellent and equitable learning opportunities. 

Since 2003, we’ve partnered with students and families in Richmond’s East End to create access to educational opportunities.

We believe every student deserves access to a robust academic environment that prepares them for their next steps in life. By partnering with families, we care holistically for each student, nurturing their academic and social-emotional growth within our small school environment. Through our after school program, we ensure the community’s youngest learners–no matter the school they attend–have safe, creative, and enriching out-of-school adventures.

We’re blessed to cultivate the God-given potential of students in Richmond’s East End through learning opportunities that equip them to flourish.
