About Our School
Established in 2017, Uplift White Rock Hills is located on a beautiful 5-acre campus in east Dallas and serves grades Pre-K through 5th. The school was built to allow more students the opportunity to attend nearby, nationally-recognized Uplift Luna for middle school and high school (students at Uplift White Rock Hills will receive automatic admission to Uplift Luna when moving from 5th to 6th grade). We are proud of our small school feel and tight-knit community of families. Schedule a tour to see for yourself how we are raising the expectations for education!
