Jefferson RISE Charter School
Gretna, LA Full Time
POSTED ON 3/18/2025
AVAILABLE BEFORE 5/18/2025

Company Description

Jefferson RISE opened in 2015 with its founding 6th grade class of 120 students. Currently located in Gretna, Jefferson RISE provides a middle and high school education to students on the Westbank of Jefferson Parish. For the 2019-20 school year, RISE enrolls students in 6th through 10th grade. By 2021, RISE will have full enrollment in grades 6-12. On the Westbank, less than 1/3 of our incoming students are on grade level in ELA and Math. By focusing on preparing our students for the most rigorous colleges and careers, we will ensure that every student leaves RISE prepared for his or her future. While there are Advanced Academies and private schools, RISE is the only 6-12 open enrollment option. Jefferson RISE provides a college preparatory curriculum to students in Jefferson Parish. Our school day and school year are longer to be sure our students get access to core subjects and electives. We know this is hard work, but with our dedicated, driven, and talented team, we are confident that we will change the lives of students on the Westbank.
