Rocketship opened its first elementary school, Rocketship Rise Academy, in Ward 8 on August 22, 2016. The school will grow to serve students through 5th grade by 2019. In Fall 2017, Rocketship opened its second school East of the River in Ward 7, Rocketship Legacy Prep.

Rocketship schools are free, public elementary schools that are committed to putting every student on the path to college. Students at Rocketship schools make remarkable progress every year. In a single school year, Rocketeers (that's what we call our students) achieve a year and a half of growth in math and reading. Their focus on personalized learning and parent engagement allows them to meet the unique needs of each and every student they serve.
