What is Renaissance?
This group is the high school version of "PTO" that many of you have participated in during your child's years in elementary and middle school. Renaissance is the only national education focused program created to recognize and reward the academic achievements of students. Its primary goal is to increase student performance, help maintain teacher enthusiasm and raise the level of community participation in schools.
Renaissance recognizes students who achieve Renaissance status each nine weeks.
Seniors are recognized during graduation by wearing a special Renaissance cord to symbolize their academic achievements while at SHS.
At the end of the school year, students are rewarded during a grade level ceremony.
Levels of Student Achievement
Gold: A student must earn all A's (90 average or better/min. 90 in AP/IB classes) in each subject The student must have no discipline referrals.
Silver: A student must earn an overall A average (90 average/min. 80 in AP/IB classes) with no grade below an 80. The student must have no more than three absences and no discipline referrals.
Bronze : A student must earn an overall B average (80 average) with no grade below an 75. A student can qualify by improving seven or more points (to a 60 or better) in two classes while failing no other classes. The student must have no more than four absences and no discipline referrals.
*Students disciplined of cheating will automatically be disqualified for Renaissance recognition for that nine-week period.
