Renaissance is a student-centered system for recognizing and rewarding students who model what are considered to be good character traits. These traits are tied to our School Improvement Plan. Students can qualify for Renaissance each quarter based on academics, attendance and behavior. Students may not have any disciplinary action (referrals/bus tickets), no more than three days of absences, nor more than 4 tardies, and no "F" on the quarater grade card to qualify. If a student has had more than three excused absences in a quarter, he/she can make up two days and still qualify. Extended medical absences (more than the above mentioned days) will require a doctor's excuse and will be reviewed by the Renaissance Committee on a case-by-case basis (see Mrs. Ruether for further information). Days can be made up through community service in or outside of school; arrangements to make up days must be made through one of the Renaissance coordinators. This must be done at least one week prior to the end of the term. It is the resposibility of the student to keep track of time missed and days needed to make up time. Students who make Renaissance with a 4.0 GPA will be recognized as Gold Renaissance. Student who make Renaissance every quarter will be rewarded with an end of the year celebration and a t-shirt.
