I want to thank the entire staff at Memphis Rise! The things you have helped my daughter do last year, related to her personal and educational goals were astounding!
My daughter was one of the "founding" 6th graders that attended Memphis Rise Academy for the 2014-2015 School year. I can not express what an awesome experience we had as a family. Kaitlyn raves about her teachers and administrators; she looks forward to going to school each day. From a parents perspective, Memphis Rise offers students a unique learning experience with an emphasis on constantly "Rising" to the next level and students achieving their goals. Not only do they emphasize it, they lead by example. The small group of 6th grade founders are full spirit and are taught by a very caring and patient educational team. For our family, we know this is the right place for our daughter and look forward to the seeing her continue to "Rise"!!!

It's tough for my child; she has learning disabilities, however, she enjoys the challenge and said herself, "Mom you think it's too much, but I will get used to it". I love that she is "Rising" to the challenge!! This school promotes the "YOU CAN do this" attitude!
