Join us for one or more of three upcoming events:

We are looking for  volunteers to serve as panelists for our junior
and senior "proficiency" presentations next week, Wednesday through
Friday, December 9-11th. Come for an hour and help evaluate our
students' presentations on their literary analysis, mathematical
thinking, scientific inquiry, and/or historical research and
understanding. Presentations are on the hour every hour from 9-3
except for 12. Please email kate@arisehighschool.org if you are interested in helping
out!

Join ARISE High School at a production of SPARKLE at the Berkeley Black Repertory Theater on December 11th! Purchase your ticket HERE.

Every student in ARISE's first graduating class will be a first-generation college student as well. Our twenty-two seniors are all busy taking challenging classes, including many community college ones, as well as doing extra work to make up missing credits if necessary and making sure that they are eligible for admission to the University of California system.  Helping them with their goals are a wonderful team of mentors who are working one-on-one with students, helping them with their personal statements and college and scholarship applications.

Due to unexpected circumstances, ARISE is seeking a Humanities teacher.  Please view our job description by clicking the "Apply for Staff" link and contact louise at arisehighschool.org if you are interested.

After a full orientation week and two and a half weeks of regular classes, ARISE is off to a very strong start this year!

ARISE's first day of school is Monday, August 24th.  Students and families came to register and sign up for classes this past week.  Looking forward to seeing everyone on Monday!

ARISE High School's second year is almost over!

Around this time of year, ARISE High School reaches out to people across the Bay area to join us in the process of evaluating our students’ work.  Please join us for our second annual 10th Grade Bridge Presentations on May 27th, 28th and 29th.  Tenth grade students will present a portfolio of their work, reflect on the Habits of Mind and Heart that they have developed, and demonstrate why they should move up to the eleventh grade next year.

Come join us for a happy hour and silent auction at Yoshi's in support of ARISE High School and our cultural immersion program!
