Hearing Directly from Students At the very heart of the RISE Network, driving all of the work that we do, is our strong commitment to excellent and equitable student experiences. Our strategies are meant to empower students, giving them the tools and confidence they need to chart a path for success. RISE students inspire us every day with their determination to achieve their goals, and their resolve and enthusiasm only make our community stronger. Looking back on the past year, our students reflect on their experiences and the connections made through the RISE Network.
