Summary

Renaissance Academy Of Arts And Sciences in Kissimmee, FL, is a K-12 alternative public school serving 962 students within the Osceola district, where over half of the students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch.

This school presents a unique "Jekyll and Hyde" academic profile. It excels in elementary grades and has a standout 7th-grade math program, with a 74% proficiency rate that is 35 points above the district average. However, performance drops sharply in middle school math and high school English, with only 35% proficiency in 6th-grade math and 46% in 10th-grade English. This volatility is unusual compared to nearby schools like Osceola Science Charter School, which delivers consistently high scores across all grades. A major concern is the school's chronic absenteeism rate, which has more than tripled since 2020 to 42.1%, significantly worse than the district average of 34.9% and likely a key factor in academic struggles.

Interestingly, the school's spending per pupil jumped to $10,252, but this increase hasn't led to overall academic improvement. The school's challenges are not inherent to being an alternative school, as Osceola Virtual Franchise (Secondary) demonstrates that alternative models can achieve high outcomes with near-zero absenteeism. The primary takeaway is that Renaissance Academy has effective strategies in its elementary and 7th-grade math programs, but it struggles to replicate that success in other grades, a problem worsened by a severe attendance crisis.
