Rising Scholars Academy has changed my daughter’s life. Before RSA, she went to a terrible middle school with horrible teachers, but after going to RSA her mood changed significantly and she says the teachers at RSA are so kind and listen to all her needs. She loves the community and tells me she feels really safe because of the security guards by the door. She especially loves the clubs and has made several new friends. Overall, we really recommend RSA without a doubt, nothing negative has happened at any STISD schools!
One of the best campuses for rigorous and advancement curriculum. The Teachers are one of the most supportive and understanding educators that strive to provide students with the best.
I highly recommend this campus for your 7th and 8th grade students. Students are expected to participate, be productive, be present, punctual and polite. Their academics prepare students for High School and are expected to complete projects, homework assignments and be involved in clubs.
If a student struggles, expectations are clear and constant communication with parents is always done. Interventions are provided as well as mandatory tutorials.
Opportunities for High School credit is available such as BIO, Algebra and World Geo. This campus sets the standard for excellence and rigorous academia.

We deliver results based on our challenging curriculum and we offer all the support our students need to be successful.
