MISSION
The Rising Scholars service is dedicated to fostering a vibrant learning community that unites knowledgeable guidance staff and academically curious students. Through small, selective cohorts, we cultivate close relationships between students and staff, nurturing the next generation of citizen-scholars.
Our service emphasizes growth-mindset, hands-on knowledge, intellectual curiosity, and realistic ambitious pursuits. We are committed to advancing a diverse, inclusive, and equitable environment where every member has the opportunity and support to thrive, and embark on a purposeful life and career.
The service will be recognized as a leader in the county in preparing the next generation of solution- oriented, critical, and creative thinkers with the knowledge, skills, abilities, and commitment to maximize their unique potential and have a positive impact on the world around them.

Rising Scholars is committed to help students develop their ability to think critically and to communicate well in a variety of contexts. It creates a collaborative learning community that emphasizes active learning, intellectual exploration, and civic engagement to provide motivated, high-achieving students unique opportunities to further discover more about themselves in relation to their communities beyond the core academic curriculum.
