FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

EdRise Revolutionizes Academic Support for Hawthorne Alternative High School Students with 24/7 AI Tutoring Platform

PENDLETON, OR – September 28, 2025 – EdRise.io, a leader in AI-powered educational technology, today announced the official launch of its groundbreaking AI tutoring platform for all 46 college-bound students at Hawthorne Alternative High School in Pendleton, Oregon. This initiative provides immediate, personalized academic support designed to empower students as they navigate rigorous coursework and prepare for higher education. The collaboration underscores EdRise's unwavering mission to democratize access to high-quality education through advanced artificial intelligence, ensuring every student has the tools to succeed.

The journey to college for students at Hawthorne Alternative High School is filled with unique academic hurdles. Many of the 46 college-bound students grapple with the intense demands of SAT/ACT preparation, the complexities of AP coursework, and the meticulous process of college applications, all while striving to maintain competitive GPAs. In Pendleton, the average cost of traditional tutoring, ranging from $50 to $150 per hour, often creates an insurmountable financial barrier for families. Furthermore, busy family schedules and extensive extracurricular commitments leave little time for structured, in-person tutoring sessions. Students frequently require immediate homework assistance during late evening hours, a time when traditional support is unavailable. Recognizing the diverse learning styles among its students, Hawthorne also seeks personalized approaches that a one-size-fits-all model cannot provide, all under the pervasive pressure to excel for college admissions.

EdRise's Alan AI tutor offers a revolutionary solution, meticulously designed to address these specific challenges faced by Hawthorne Alternative High School students and their families:
