SCHOLAR ATHLETES
At ARISE, we believe that student athletics are important to cultivating key building blocks towards achieving our school’s mission.
These building blocks include developing teamwork, discipline, character, intentionality, and a supportive community. Student athletes at ARISE also work at being Scholar Athletes. As such, ARISE’s policy is that a student must be scholastically eligible to compete in any athletic contest during that season of the sport.

Warrior Scholar Athletes in Action





















Warrior Intellectuals On and Off the Field
At ARISE, athletics build the same things our classrooms do: discipline, character, teamwork, and community. Scholar Athletes uphold our Core Values at all times so they and the whole ARISE community rise up.
Respect
Self, others, your word, and space
Persevere
Through uncertainty, challenge, and struggle
Build
Discipline, knowledge, agency, and community
Lead
With integrity, courage, and action
Academic Eligibility
Students must be academically eligible to play. A student who is not academically eligible sits out games until they are eligible again. To stay eligible, a Scholar Athlete:
- Maintains minimum progress toward high school graduation
- Has no more than one NC the day before a game
- Turns in a Progress Report to the Dean of School Culture by lunch the day before every game
- Upholds the ARISE Codes of Respect
Violations of the Codes of Respect may also lead to losing eligibility for games.
Expectations for Scholar Athletes
These expectations and their consequences apply on and off the field.
Total enrollment 2026-27: 414 students, 193 girls and 221 boys (as of October 2026). ARISE fields six varsity teams: girls volleyball, boys soccer, girls basketball, boys basketball, girls soccer, and boys volleyball. Athletes on each team by gender are listed in Athletics Count 2025-26.

Athletes are expected to attend all classes, be on time, turn in their assignments on time, seek help from the teacher when necessary, have a positive attitude toward their peers and teachers, and model being a Warrior Intellectual. Failure to do so will result in discipline from the coach and can lead to ineligibility to play. .
An athlete must be in class for four full periods to practice or play in a game that day. If an athlete in not in four full periods of class, he/she becomes ineligible to compete or practice that day.
