"The recent negative reviews posted here read like they may have come from the same disgrunted parent. I do not know if she/he has a vendetta against the principal but they should get over it. The school is very good and both my kids are learning and are happy here. If it were as bad as this parent makes it sound, I would have gone to another school. Why be miserable and put your kid through such a "dictatorial" environment? The school staff is excellent and have always been there for my family. Parents seem very involved and the PTA is very active year round. The academic program is second to none."

"Actually, I agree with that last parent who commented on April 29, 2011 there is no such thing as a perfect school. However, I do disagree with the criticism aspect, because constructive criticism is productive, and I am sure some parents have complained but there complaints have been overlooked. As a parent I've given my feedback on those surveys and I've never seen any change, it's as if they are fond of communism or dictatorship and would never support change at RECS."

"My son has been at Renaissance for 3 years and i've had my issues with the school at times, but for the most part it has been a very good experience. I don't know of any school that's perfect and if any one does please let me know. So you have to put everything into perspective. At the end of the day, no one made me put my child in this school and if i was as unhappy as some of the parents sound i would do everything in my power to change schools. Everyone has a right to complain, but maybe we can give suggestions to improve our school instead of constant criticism."

"As a parent I strongly disagree with the previous comment. All the parents including myself are partly responsible for the success behind Renaissance. We parents volunteer our time, money, and we put a lot of dedication in everything we do. At times I would say we work and contribute just as much as the principal. Personally I don't mind interacting with a stern principal, but I think that she still mirror the image of professionalism and dedication with a little more class and tactfulness. It' s nice to be able to communicate with a principal that is willing to listen and hear the feedback that parents have to offer. Let's bear in mind that communication is the key to success. Shame on you we all put effort into the process! At last you have some audacity telling us parents what we need to do if we disagree. I think that Renaissance needs a change of parents and principal, in order to live to its true expectations!"

"Renaissance is a very good school. My child has been a student here four years now. I am very pleased with the pace of the curriculum. The Principal's stern personality should not be viewed as a flaw to her profesionalism and dedication. She runs a tight ship, and the results are proof that she delivers. The teachers are great, but they are part of a private business and just as the principal, they must all meet their corporate goal. I am very surprised with some of the comments of the "parents". It is a choice to have your children attend this school. If you are that unhappy with it, or disagree with the principal then make your move to another learning facility. This is definetly not your average Miami-Dade public school, you have to put some effort into the process!. With the move of the elementary school to the new facility, some of that "community" school charm has been lost. PE and extracurricular activities need some major improvements."
