For example, in the 2023-2024 school year, the school had 95% proficiency in Algebra 1 EOC, compared to 58% in the district and 55% statewide.

This diversity is a strength, as it reflects the broader community and provides opportunities for cross-cultural learning and understanding. Overall, Renaissance Charter School At Coral Springs stands out as a high-performing school within the Broward County district, but the recent increase in chronic absenteeism is a concern that the school and district should address to ensure all students can fully benefit from the school's educational programs.

I put my son in this school when it first opened. He is now in 3rd grade and the SCHOOL IS AWFUL. They must train the teachers to be yellers, because that is all they do all day. Administration is useless. They only get 15 minutes of recess and they take that away to use as punishment. They try to run the school like a boot camp, they forget these are just kids. They worry only about test scores and make the rules up as they go. We are pulling our son from this school at the end of the year. It is NOT at all what they promise. Close Quote

As a parent of 3 kids (2nd 4th and 6th grade) I am very disappointed with the school. I enrolled my kids 3 years ago when the school open. It was a great school but lately the academics and organization of the school is not good. The teachers are very young and they replaced them a lot. My kids every year had different teacher at the middle of the year because they leave they resign at the middle of the year. It happened in 2013 and 2012. I started to think that the best for my kids will be to go to a different school in the area but they have friends there. Close Quote

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
