The Challenge
We as a school district, we cannot do it all.
We as a school district, we cannot do it all.
Impact
Rainier Athletes partners with over 40 community sports leagues, 12 Bellevue schools, and 300 teachers to holistically support some of the hardest-to-reach students in our neighborhood
Rainier Athletes soon became more than the name of an organization; Rainier Athletes became the proud descriptor of some of my students.
Rainier Athletes hold students accountable in a way that is desperately needed. I am impressed by their commitment to be the link between student, home, and school. They comprehensively track, monitor, and communicate with all three parties in real time. This accountability allows students to stumble at time, but immediately have the support to get back up and excel.
Rainier Athlete mentors connect and align influential supporters in a young student’s life to provide the motivation that the schools cannot alone. The Rainier Athletes program delivery model works.
Rainier Athletes is more than just a program, it’s a family.
Rainier Athletes provides a safety net that I have not seen and the data at Lake Hills is compelling. We have the lowest incidences of behavior referrals in 5th grade.
