As we approach our 10 year Anniversary of The Rise School of Houston, we are thrilled to announce that we are embarking upon a Capital Campaign, “Rise to the Occasion”, to build a new campus in the Texas Medical Center. Our school and programs have been so successful we are no longer able to meet the demands of the growing population.
The Rise School prides itself on providing the highest quality of early childhood education services to children with developmental delays as well as to children without disabilities. In addition to basic early education, The Rise School offers a unique blend of therapeutic interventions that includes speech therapy, physical therapy, occupational therapy, and music therapy. Research has shown that the educational foundation provided early will have significant impact on a child’s later academic success. The goal of Rise is to help each child reach his or her developmental potential and the program has a history of success. These Rise students “graduate” from the school at age six. Ninety-five percent of our graduates have moved on to mainstream kindergarten classrooms.
The Board of Directors and staff of The Rise School are excited, dedicated and confident. We believe Houston’s foundations, corporations and individuals will make our dream a reality. Together, we can provided the start in life these children need to become contributing, tax-paying citizens, instead of wards of the state.
