Renaissance High School

Summary:

Renaissance High School is a small public high school in Franklin, Tennessee, serving 167 students in grades 9-12. Part of the highly-ranked Williamson County school district, Renaissance High consistently performs among the top high schools in the state, with exceptional academic outcomes that far exceed the county and state averages.

Renaissance High School's students demonstrate remarkable proficiency on state assessments, with 90.9% scoring proficient or better in US History compared to 71.7% in Williamson County and just 41% statewide. The school's academic excellence is reflected in its consistent top rankings, including as high as 3rd out of 341 Tennessee high schools in 2017-2018. This success may be attributed to the school's small size and very low student-teacher ratio, which ranges from 8.4 to 10.5 - significantly lower than nearby Nolensville High School, Summit High School, and Centennial High School.

However, Renaissance High School's student population is less racially diverse than the surrounding schools, with around 80% White students compared to more balanced demographics at other Williamson County high schools. This raises questions about the school's efforts to promote diversity and inclusivity, and whether it is effectively serving the needs of all students. Nonetheless, Renaissance High School's model of academic excellence and personalized learning environment provides valuable insights for other schools seeking to improve their educational outcomes.

As you review the school rankings data, please be aware that some of the information from certain demographics is missing. The reason for this omission is that the data has been redacted from the source data itself due to low population samples in these specific demographic groups.

Redacting data from low population samples is a necessary step to ensure the reliability and accuracy of the results, as small sample sizes may not be representative of the broader population. Additionally, this measure helps protect the privacy of individuals belonging to these demographic groups.

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.
