RYSE’S SCHOOL SEARCH TOOL | Ryse’s School Search Tool offers easy access to otherwise difficult-to-find information on schools, helping families weigh their options more easily. The tool is currently in the testing and development phase. We’re excited to offer exclusive early access to families who participate in our School Selection Info Sessions in exchange for your patience as we continue development to provide all the features we are excited to offer. Families who aren’t able to participate in the School Selection Info Sessions can join the School Search Tool waitlist here.

Each School Selection Info Session Includes:

1. School Choice Overview: Discover various school types, how to navigate the Charlotte-Mecklenburg Schools choice lottery, bus transportation, and upcoming events to explore schools.

2. Myths & Missteps: Learn about common misconceptions that mislead families, helping you make better-informed school choices and avoid regret.

3. Ryse’s School Search Tool: Get early access to Ryse's easy-to-use School Search Tool to find schools aligned with your priorities.

4. Informed Questions for School Tours: Develop tailored questions based on each school's unique characteristics to gain deeper insights during school tours and choice events.

This session is designed for:

• Families of all backgrounds who want to find a great school for their children.

• Dads, moms, stepparents, grandparents, aunts/uncles, foster parents, and all others supporting children in a parenting capacity.

• Families currently residing in Charlotte who are looking for a new elementary, middle, or high school for the next school year and those who want to prepare for future choices.

• Families looking to move to Charlotte who want to understand how their choice of location may impact their educational opportunities.

• Families of younger children who are not starting Kindergarten immediately but who are interested in better understanding the educational landscape.

This session may be less helpful for:

• Families Seeking Full-service School Search Support | This session equips families with information and resources to guide their own school search and does not provide specific school recommendations for individual families. Please contact us at hello@rysekids.com if you are interested in 1-on-1 personalized support for your family.

• Families Exclusively Interested in Private Schools |  This session primarily focuses on public school options including traditional public schools, charter schools, magnet schools, and regional and lab schools. While the presentation will very briefly touch on private schools as a whole, private schools are not explored individually. As such, families exclusively interested in private schools will likely not find this session worthwhile.
