Welcome to South Cook's the RISE Intake System. The Intake System allows you to submit a request for placement of a student in one of the RISE programs. For your convenience, we have provided a snapshot of what you will need to apply for enrollment below.

IMPORTANT: You will need a signed Parent Release of Information form, which you can download by clicking here. This form MUST be signed by the student's parent / legal guardian before the district can release any information regarding the student to the RISE program. You will be required to upload this document before you can complete this submission process.

IMPORTANT: There will also need to be a signed program agreement on file with South Cook for your district for the given school year. Many districts have already signed and returned the agreement for the current year during the spring of the previous year, and the agreement for your district may already be on file.
On the next page, you will be alerted if your district does not have a signed program agreement for the selected program for the given school year.
