What a great afternoon on Wednesday at the annual School District of Janesville, All-City 4th Grade Track Meet!

Our ARISE 4th graders participated in events including hurdles, the 50-yard dash, shot put, softball throw, and long jump. We are so proud of the effort, perseverance, and sportsmanship these students showed throughout the day. We even had a few ribbons earned and one of our students was recognized for outstanding sportsmanship! 👏

You may notice in the pictures that most of our students are wearing ARISE shirts, while one student is not. Did you know students can attend ARISE as a hybrid student? One of our 4th graders does exactly that this year — taking most of her classes with ARISE while still attending PE in person at her brick-and-mortar school. It’s a great example of the flexibility ARISE Virtual Academy can offer families!

The sunshine, cheering, and excitement made for such a fun afternoon. Our students encouraged one another, tried new things, and represented ARISE so well all day long. So proud of this group

What an incredible afternoon at the School District of Janesville, Elementary Track Meet for our ARISE Virtual Academy 5th graders!

The annual All-City Track and Field Meet has been a Janesville tradition since 1927, and today our students were proud to be part of that long-standing tradition.

Our students competed in hurdles, long jump, softball throw, shot put, 50-yard dash, medicine ball throw, and the 400-meter run. We are so proud of the effort, determination, sportsmanship, and teamwork they showed throughout the entire afternoon.

ARISE students earned many ribbons across the meet, and we are especially excited to share that EVERY student who participated earned at least one ribbon in one of their events today!

Beyond the ribbons and placements, it was amazing to watch students encourage one another, try new challenges, and represent ARISE with such positive attitudes and school pride.

Great job, ARISE athletes! You made us proud today!

What a great day at the Beloit Sky Carp Education Day for students, staff, and chaperones from ARISE Virtual Academy!

Our students had an amazing time enjoying a day of baseball, fun, and learning at the ballpark. Today’s matchup featured the Beloit Sky Carp taking on the Peoria Chiefs, and the Sky Carp came away with a 6–4 win!

It was wonderful to see so many smiles, great sportsmanship, and excitement throughout the day. Thank you to everyone who helped make this field trip such a success!

Our field trips continue to provide opportunities for real-life learning and social-emotional growth for our virtual learners. From cheering on the Sky Carp to spending time together outside of the virtual classroom, today was full of smiles, laughter, and memories.

It is always so special to see our classmates and teachers without a screen between us.

This week, we celebrate the incredible educators who make ARISE such a special community.

Our teachers go far beyond lessons and assignments — they build relationships, encourage confidence, support families, and create meaningful connections with students and their families every single day through the power of virtual learning.

Whether they are teaching live lessons, checking in with students, offering encouragement, answering questions late into the day, or finding creative ways to make learning engaging, their dedication shines through in everything they do.

Thank you for the dedication, kindness, creativity, and care you bring to our students every single day. Your impact reaches far beyond the screen, and our ARISE community is stronger because of you.

At ARISE Virtual Academy, we truly are family, and we are so thankful for the caring, passionate educators who help our students grow academically, socially, and emotionally each day.

Last week, ARISE students and staff came together to celebrate all the hard work, focus, and determination that carried us through state testing in March and April. Students in grades 3–11 completed the Forward Exam, PreACT, or ACT, depending on their grade level. Students who did not participate in state testing celebrated their own successes by staying on pace and passing their classes.

Everyone celebrated together by heading to the Movies Janesville theater in the morning to enjoy The Super Mario Galaxy Movie with popcorn and a fun, relaxing experience.

We are so proud of the effort and commitment shown by all of our students throughout this time!

🌿March 6 Field Trip to the Aldo Leopold Nature Center🌿

Even with a little rain, our day was full of learning, laughter, and adventure! We took advantage of the early spring weather before the mid-month blizzard rolled in—perfect timing for an outdoor experience! ARISE students participated in maple syruping and seasonal science programs, getting hands-on experience and deepening their understanding of how nature changes throughout the year.

It was also wonderful to see the camaraderie among students—supporting one another, sharing discoveries, and enjoying time together outside the classroom. These in-person opportunities are especially important for our virtual learners. They provide meaningful chances to connect, collaborate, and experience learning in a whole new way.

As we’re now back to enjoying some lovely spring weather during break, we wanted to take a moment to share these photos and reflect on such a great day together. Days like this remind us that some of the best learning happens beyond the classroom… rain and all!

Take a look at some of the highlights from our day! 📸👇
