The Renaissance School

The mission of the Renaissance School is to provide children with an international center of learning and culture that is open, supportive, and multidisciplinary and where children can develop and achieve their highest potential. Learning the right answers will get you through school. Learning how to learn will get you through life! Montessori teaches students to think, not simply to memorize, feed back, and forget.

The basis of our approach is the simple observation that children learn most effectively through direct experience and the process of investigation and discovery.

No two students learn at the same pace, nor do they necessarily learn best from the same methods.

Our goal is to be flexible and creative in addressing each student as a unique individual. We recognize that before students can take advantage of a challenging education, they have to discover their innate abilities. They need to develop a strong sense of independence, self-confidence, and self-discipline. They must be willing to make and learn from countless mistakes. This suggests an education of the heart as much as an education of the mind.

The Renaissance School is designed to be a school where children can blossom! We seek to inspire a passion for excellence and to nurture curiosity, creativity, and imagination. Our goal is to give students a fine education and to prepare them for life.
