I have a very good experience with the school. The teachers identify the student's ability and challenge them. Also, the school has a program to help the students those who are struggling and achieve their academic goal. Dr. Morton and Dr. Guierra is doing an excellent job and always willing to help. Very good in Parent-Teacher communication. Overall RISE Academy is the best school in Margate.
