TRANSPORTATION
Arise provides free school bus transportation to any student to/from each High School, or students may transport themselves.

If you need transportation from HSE: Our bus will arrive to door #1 (the bus entrance by the flagpole) around 1:38pm. Once 7th period ends, you can hang out by door #1 for a few minutes until our bus arrives!
-
If you need a ride back to school: Students may also take our bus back to their respective schools after Arise. Students will be back in the building by 3:00 pm so they can catch their ride home, or attend after-school sports/clubs/programs!
ELIGIBILITY
Any student grade 9-12 at either school is eligible to attend unless they are called in by a teacher for academic purposes. Even 9th & 10th graders at HSE are able to attend if they submit a Parent/Guardian Release Form.
SCHOOL SUPPORT
Arise leadership meets regularly with HSE School Administration to ensure Arise aligns fully with the intent of HSE schools to see students in our community thrive. HSE and Fishers High School leadership have provided a consent form to be used by parents and students who wish to attend Arise. Arise is responsible for providing attendance records to the schools. Attendance at Arise is credited to the student as attendance at school.
LEGALITY
Arise is 100% legal and authorized. We are a released time program that abides by Indiana Code 20-33-2-19. Released time honors the doctrine of separation of church and state by adhering to the guidelines established by the U.S. Supreme Court decision Zorach v. Clauson (1952). Released time programs across the country honor three basic guidelines:​
-
The program must take place off school grounds.
-
No taxpayer funding may be used.
-
Student attendance is completely voluntary with written parental consent.
