Renaissance Charter School
Welcome to Renaissance Elementary & Middle Charter School located in Doral, Florida. We are a tuition-free public charter school serving students in grades K through 8.
Mission
The mission of Renaissance Charter School is to provide a foundation that will enable students to reach their highest potential in academics, citizenship and life skills. The instruction throughout Renaissance Elementary/Middle Charter School is focused on an interdisciplinary approach with particular emphasis on the acquisition of basic skills. The curriculum is taught at a developmentally appropriate level; and the end result is demonstrated through a variety of assessments, including both academic excellence on standardized achievement tests as well as through quality portfolio examples of student work. We promote academic achievement commensurate with the child's ability and grade level and in accordance with the child's personalized academic plan.
What is a Charter School?
Charter schools are part of a sweeping educational reform that places the highest priority on providing a better education. Charter schools are tuition free and are funded much like a public school, but each charter school is governed privately. Private governance places accountability squarely on the shoulders of the entity running the schools. Every dollar spent through the charter school system is focused on furthering each student’s education. Unlike traditional public schools, charter schools must demonstrate success, or they will lose their charter. Charter schools can be managed by municipalities, private companies or individuals.
Renaissance Charter School is a member of the Charter Schools USA family of schools. Charter Schools USA is one of the largest providers of charter school management services in the state of Florida. CSUSA manages private and municipal charters for grades Pre-K through 12.
