9th Grade RISE Program
Our 9th Grade RISE program (Realizing Interests through Support and Exploration) is open to all 9th graders who have participated in the Camp Harbor View summer session. Our goal is to help program participants as they begin high school by offering mentoring, skill-based workshops, and exploration of college and career options. By offering a multi-faceted program, we aim to fill a critical gap as 9th graders confront new challenges in their first year of high school.
This program is designed to be broad, offering an array of experiences that expose participants to new skills, learning opportunities, and options for their future, while emphasizing a strong sense of community and the full support of Camp Harbor View.
PROGRAM FEATURES
- Tuesday after school programming including homework help, mentoring, and enrichment opportunities.
- Monthly Saturday workshops are focused on high school preparedness, foundational leadership skills, college exposure, and career exploration. These workshops are designed to be introductory, opening the eyes of each young person to an array of skills and opportunities as they enter high school and prepare for 10th-12th grade.
- Preparation for the three-year Camp Harbor View Leaders in Training program for teens in grades 10-12.
