Rising Stars Academy
Rocketship Rising Stars builds the strong habits and critical skills that all students need to succeed in the 21st century. We empower our Rocketeers to develop and embrace their inner drive to pursue learning that meets and exceeds their needs. Deeper learning requires students to think, question, pursue, and create—to take agency and ownership of their growth and success. At Rising Stars, we rise together!
US News also ranked Rocketship Rising Stars in the top 11% of all elementary schools in the state!

Our school is named Rocketship Rising Stars Academy because every student is a shooting star at this school. Every day Rocketeers launch with excellence and land with responsibility, respect, empathy, persistence, and advocacy.
