    Amazing School this school offers an amazing college class experience. The Academic Advisors are really good. This school does focus mainly on the arts but does help out pretty well in serving students who don’t want to attend college an arts major. We have a 100% Graduation Rate. I would recommend visiting this school before you make your final decision as the experience is different for everyone!

    As they tell you, this school is not for everyone, but it was the perfect fit for me. RenArts has offered me an alternative way of learning, and has given me the musical opportunities that I have hoped for an more. They have helped me be able to express myself clearly and have helped me with the academic subjects I have trouble with through non-traditional means. Granted, as with any school, there are some things that I don’t particularly care for, but there are far more things about this school that I love. Overall, I would highly recommend this school to those who are interested in an alternative way of learning. You have to keep an open mind and give the school a chance. After all, Rome wasn’t built in a day.
    My experience here has been great. This school has really prepared me for what is to come next in my educational life. My favorite thing about this school is how the teach us how to take leadership, and this really trains us on how to take leadership in whatever circumstance comes upon us. I would like for some of the students attitudes towards the teachers to change so that there could be a better learning atmosphere.
