Through expeditionary, project and problem based learning, the Renaissance curriculum offers an innovative and challenging academic program with high levels of student engagement and achievement. The program emphasizes student inquiry, critical thinking and the craftsmanship required to create high-quality products. Students do original research, often guided by experts from the field, and present their results to both peers and the public.Learning Expeditions—deep studies of rich academic topics—are a primary means of organizing and delivering the educational program, cutting across disciplines, including the arts. Learning Expeditions are inquiry based, integrated through core content areas, and differentiated based on student needs and interests.All students at Renaissance also participate in the school's unique Adventure Education program. Rooted in the principles of Outward Bound, the Adventure Education program at Renaissance Secondary pushes students physically, emotionally, and socially, through challenging outdoor voyages, team building exercises, and other related experiences. Students master skills – both personal and interpersonal – that transfer to the classroom, to the larger community, and to life.
