Our Philosophy

The Academy also believes in helping students develop the life skills that lead to success. We help children consciously recognize their strengths and help them identify strategies for overcoming behaviors and habits that could potentially impede their accomplishments. Children experience the importance of accountability and responsibility as their instructors model and emphasize in developmentally appropriate ways these characteristics on a graduated continuum from preschool through middle school. "How can you solve the problem?" and, "What is your strategy?" are commonly asked questions in our classrooms. Allowing children to progress as far and as fast as they are able to go with the recognition that knowledge is as effective as the foundation on which it is placed, is the keystone to our success. We prepare our scholars for higher education through a comprehensive and individualized academic curriculum coupled with self awareness, confidence, and responsible study skills. |

The Renaissance Academy is sincerely interested in maximizing
the potential of each student. This is done through a comprehensive,
experiential and dynamic classroom curriculum. It is common to see children
excel in reading or math in the elementary years. Due to our small student to
teacher ratio and individual approach, we can accommodate a vast range of skill
levels in our students, particularly gifted and talented (TAG) students.
