Rise and Shine

A program for school community

School Community

The purpose of Rise and Shine is to create a sense of community within the school. It helps create a threat-free environment, which is needed these days. Rise and Shine is a way to begin each day positively, and helps build confidence and self-esteem.

Rise and Shine is a demonstration of our school creed—responsibility for doing the ceremony, celebration in the accomplishment, and definitely courage to get in front of your peers (even as a group).
