MEMPHIS, TN – October 17, 2025 – EdRise.io, a leader in AI-powered educational technology, today announced the official launch of its groundbreaking AI tutoring platform for CROSSTOWN HIGH SCHOOL in Memphis, TN. Starting immediately, all 399 college-bound students at Crosstown High will have free trial access to Alan, EdRise’s intelligent AI tutor, providing personalized, on-demand academic support across a vast array of subjects. This initiative marks a significant step in EdRise’s mission to democratize access to high-quality education through advanced artificial intelligence, ensuring every student has the tools they need to succeed in their academic journey and beyond.

The path to college for students at Crosstown High School, like many across Memphis, is fraught with unique academic and logistical hurdles. Students are under immense pressure to excel in challenging AP coursework, achieve competitive SAT/ACT scores, and craft compelling college applications, all while maintaining high GPAs. Traditional tutoring, while effective, often comes with a prohibitive price tag, with average costs in Memphis ranging from $50 to $150 per hour – a significant barrier for many families. Furthermore, busy family schedules, extensive extracurricular commitments, and the need for immediate homework assistance during late evening hours often leave students without the timely support they desperately need. Each student also possesses a diverse learning style, requiring a personalized approach that conventional methods often struggle to provide consistently. EdRise directly addresses these pressing needs, offering an equitable and effective solution.
