Woodlawn

Daycare & Early Learning in Woodlawn, Bronx.

Rising Scholars is a literacy-centered daycare and early learning center located in the Woodlawn neighborhood of the Bronx at 121 E. 236th Street, Bronx, NY 10470. We provide a nurturing, structured environment where children learn, grow, and build strong foundations through purposeful play and early literacy.

A Place to Learn, Play & Grow

Our Woodlawn classrooms give young children room to explore, create, play, and learn. From early literacy and hands-on activities to imaginative play and quiet moments with a book, every part of the environment is built with childhood in mind.

Room to Explore

Learning doesn’t stop at the classroom door. Our private outdoor space gives children room to move, imagine, explore, and enjoy being outside with their friends.

More Than a School. A Community.

At Rising Scholars, families become part of something bigger. We celebrate milestones together, participate in neighborhood traditions, and create opportunities for our children and families to connect beyond the classroom.

From graduations and holiday celebrations to neighborhood parades and family events, some of the best memories at Rising Scholars happen when our entire community comes together.
