Renaissance High was a school of diverse thought and a place that fostered healthy argument and questioning. It was a sort of melting pot from all over the district because it is a public charter, allowing for friendly competition between "home" schools. The teachers all cared a great deal for the type of education we received which was largely why it prepared us for our futures so well. With heavy emphases in writing and discussion, the vast majority of students there are motivated and that motivation flourished under such an environment. It was difficult for this school to have any sort of "pride" however it was not a large priority considering its academic prowess. Loved it!
I personally love Renaissance in that it offers an IB/AA program and it is generally more focused on academics. For me, the environment at the school makes it very easy to get along and befriend others. Not only does the school prepare students for college, it also offers concurrent credit classes that would allow students to start taking college courses. The student to teacher ratio is also very pleasing, students have more opportunities to be fully engaged in class with a smaller amount of students present. The only thing I would like to see changed about the school, is the school spirit. Considering it does lean towards being academically focused, the lack of school spirit (and quite frankly, the lack of time to focus on it) is understandable. However, it would always be nice to see Renaissance students having more school pride!
Renaissance is an amazing school! This school focuses around having all graduates earn an Associates or IB degree by the time that they graduate. This is the only school in our state that offers this. The classes are very student friendly. The staff is also extremely committed to helping the students. They actually know and care about each and everyone of their students which creates an all around amazing atmosphere. Though we may be small, Renaissance offers the best academics, and programs that Idaho can offer, and provides a safe and fun environment for all attendees.
