Emb@RC stands for exploration, motivation and boundlessness @ Renaissance College and this year it will take place between Nov 9th-13th, 2026. Emb@RC Week is a crucial component of our student's educational experience, it gives them an opportunity to engage in learning outside of the classroom, to take time away from their academic studies, develop holistically and participate in activities to build collaboration, leadership and more. All students must participate in Emb@RC Week and the activities provide our students with a platform to develop their experiential learning and appreciate life outside of school.
