New for 2025-2026: Optional Hybrid Learning Model
Rising Aviation High School now offers an optional hybrid model that gives students more flexibility in how they learn—while still providing strong academic support and hands-on aviation experiences.
With our hybrid learning model students can complete core classes remotely with access to live certified teachers and one-on-one support from our on-campus Learning Lab. Students who thrive in a structured environment can attend in-person daily sessions, either in the morning or afternoon—or stay all day.
Students in our fixed wing, aircraft maintenance, and drone pathways will continue to attend campus for one designated weekday and every Friday for hands-on STEM activities, excursions, and guest speakers.
Rising Aviation (RAHS) has been such a blessing for our student as he has found his community of like-minded peers and educators. Our son has been able to gain firsthand practical knowledge and experiences that have brought his dream of being a pilot to fruition.
RAHS has fostered industry relationships as well as leadership opportunities at school and in the community. All of this has afforded the opportunity to develop as a leader in the community and within the school. In addition, he has excelled academically with the support of administration and staff at RAHS. Lifetime friendships have been made here!

Blended Learning
Replacing outmoded and obsolete educational models, students can work virtually but as a matter of practice will attend school at our campus.
Schedule Flexibility
Our hybrid educational model and the fact that the private high school operates 11 months out of the year (closing only in July) allows for tremendous schedule flexibility and opportunity for students.
Individual & Small Group Instruction
Given the small class sizes of our private high school, our teachers can focus on each individual student’s needs and tailor lesson plans to each student.
Self-Paced
The Rising Aviation education program encourages students to advance based on subject mastery rather than standard time-oriented assessments. Students move ahead at their own pace according to prescribed criteria.
