About

RISE began as a conference for Allston, Brighton, and Cambridge high school juniors, and has now expanded to a full breadth of high school programming offered by the Harvard Ed Portal and Public School Partnerships!

RISE (Reimagining Identity, Self, and Excellence), started in Spring 2019 as a conference for Allston, Brighton, and Cambridge high school juniors to get a jump start on thinking about life after high school. This year, we’re excited to expand and add free, virtual programming in addition to the virtual conference!

The goal of RISE is to provide resources, knowledge, and support to high school students as you explore pathways and grow into yourselves as young adults. RISE workshops will help you prepare for life after high school by exposing you to a wide range of careers and building skills for school, work, and life in general. RISE with us and arm yourself with the tools, knowledge, and experiences to make your own choices about what paths you’ll take after high school!
