COLLEGE PREP SCHOOL CONFRONTS SYSTEMIC RACISM WITH EXPERIENTIAL CURRICULUM
The Renaissance School mission is to have an ongoing conversation that encourages thoughtful consideration of the past, present, and future. Ms. Johnson says, “We aim to educate students in a way that exposes them to facts and ideas that, in the end, inform important decisions they will ultimately make as adults. We want to encourage thoughtful citizenship. This can’t be achieved with lectures alone. This requires art, travel, literature, discussion, debate, and every kind of experiential learning.”
