What is the RENAISSANCE PROGRAM? The Renaissance Program is a national education program that recognizes and rewards students in the areas of academic achievement, attendance, and school and community citizenship. Renaissance is a program that brings together educators and partners in the business community to provide incentives to motivate students to achieve to their fullest potential in school.
