To Whom it May Concern:

I grew up in a household with two Italian parents who worked really hard and always supported and encouraged me to be a great student. However, when I found out about the Arise program I was amazed. 

Since I joined Arise, I have become a better student and a better athlete. I have maintained a 4.1 GPA (High Honors) at Brien Mcmahon High School. Additionally, I was accepted to St Luke’s School in New Canaan for next fall. 

The Arise program taught how to work hard and never give up on my dreams. I honestly believe that I couldn’t have achieved this level of success without the help of Coach Bracey and the amazing Arise staff. 

I recommend the Arise program to any student-athlete that wants to succeed and improve.

Sincerely,
