The goal of our program is to identify youth who are going to have a turbulent transition to adulthood and offer a positive support system in order to avoid the pitfalls that can derail their lives. Our focus is slightly different at each level. At the elementary school level (in our "KIDS IN SHOWBIZ" Workshops), our mentors strive to guide children and preteens and reinforce basic learning skills by integrating on camera acting, choreographed dance and music and song recording with class activities that math, reading, history, science and etiquette.
With middle and high school students as well as young adults, RISE provides career training along with mentors that serve as developmental role models for young people looking for direction. Sometimes it is as easy as a young person identifying with his Mentor and creative Career Training Instructors rather than choosing to be involved in criminal or destructive activities.
At Rise Training School, we immerse our students in intensive hands on learning but in a fun yet creative environment!
