REALIZATION.  The first point of “action” for The RISE After School & Mentoring Program at Middletown High School is taking a genuine interest in the lives, direction, and futures of our students.  Through support and encouragement in social and emotional development opportunities, students realize their greatest potential when they are inspired to RISE.

EDUCATION.  Project Based Learning centered on real life student driven situations, help develop their ability to network and build assets using soft skills, critical thinking, and problem solving.

BUSINESS.  Recruited mentors & coaches from local businesses help student’s uncover their area of interest, talents, and passions for possible career choices.  

COMMUNITY.  The Rise Mentoring provides One to One mentoring, Group Mentoring, and Lunch and Learns opportunities.
