My child is a RISE student has had his life turned around in the most positive way at Mesa. The last 14 months have been among the best experiences of his life because of Josh, the RISE program staff and all the faculty that make this beautiful community a nurturing learning environment. We’ve been given no assurances that the transition for the RISE kids will be supported and there is no space for our RISE kids to have access to quiet spaces these kids often need to self-regulate. Please delay the closure until you have figured these things out for our vulnerable student population.
