Is "to" in the following sentence a preposition or an adverb?
"The speaker in "We Never Know How High We Are" believes people can rise to a challenge."
In my opinion, I think it is an adverb. However, I am not entirely certain.

The word "to" is never an adverb. In your sentence, "to" begins the prepositional phrase, "to a challenge." The entire prepositional phrase is an adverb, modifying the verb, "can rise."
