Since the inception of Summer RISE in 2017, more than 2,400 students have had opportunities to learn about careers within industries. The Summer RISE 2023 program will offer rising MCPS high school juniors and seniors in-person, virtual, or hybrid experiences to engage in career-based learning opportunities. Student experiences could include, but are not limited to, learning about healthcare professions, lesson planning, social service roles, the legislative process that starts with community outreach and ends in policymaking, becoming a photographer, the operations of running chemistry and biology labs and/or learning how companies or nonprofits function as a whole. Summer RISE is an opportunity for employers to grow their own staff, including MCPS. Recruitment for career experience host organizations is underway.![]()

Registered students will express interest in learning about specific industries. Student acceptance will depend on host location availability in line with the career a student wants to experience. Students will be notified regarding their acceptance, placement, and host in the spring. Hosts will contact students to confirm a schedule for the career learning summer experience. Students accepted into the program will be required to attend a professional skills and financial literacy workshop prior to the start of the program. All students successfully completing the opportunity will receive a stipend and a certificate of completion from MCPS.![]()
