At renaissance High School, you are challenged at every moment, whether it's putting your academic skills to the test or molding you into a risk taker, this school doesn't fail to make you a strong student. One element I appreciated the most about my school were the teachers, as they are always willing to put down what they are doing in the moment in order to see their student strive and achieve the beyond. Each and every one of them are there to make us shine and achieve what we thought we couldn't. I've never been more proud to say that I go to Renaissance, this is truly a great school. If I had to say something that could change, I would suggest the stress level. Many of the students there put themselves at such a high place that we eventually burn ourselves out trying to stay up there. Other then that, this school is amazing!
I absolutely love the atmosphere at Renaissance! When they told me there would be no cliques I didn't believe them, but it's true! Sure, there are best friend groups, but really, everyone is friends with everyone here. It's a special feeling to know that no matter what, here at Renaissance, we're all just a bunch of nerds who want to have fun while reaching for our goals. Forget about making a mark on the world, we're going to mold the entire thing into the future. The only draw back, I must admit, is that since we are all trying to do so much at such a young age, the majority of people here silently suffer from mental health issues. And those don't get addressed in school often as there really isn't a way around it for those determined to stay - for better or worse. For the most part though, said issues are can be dealt with with the support of friends and those who know what it feels like to go here - which is every student at Renaissance.
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!
