Summary

Renaissance Charter School At Tradition is a K-8 charter school in Fort Lauderdale, FL, serving 1,144 students under the St. Lucie district, which ranks in the 46th percentile statewide.

This school presents a striking contrast in academic performance. On one hand, it achieves exceptional results in high school-level End-of-Course exams, with 96% proficiency in Biology and 82% in Geometry—far exceeding state averages. This suggests strong advanced programs for 8th graders. On the other hand, math proficiency drops dramatically as students progress, from 62% in 3rd grade to just 12% in 8th grade, a pattern far worse than nearby schools like College Preparatory Academy At Wellen Park, which outperforms Renaissance in nearly every subject. The school also operates on significantly lower per-pupil spending ($7,421) compared to the average for nearby Broward public schools (~$14,000), which may impact resources for core instruction. Chronic absenteeism has improved recently, dropping to 20.2%, which is better than the district average of 34.4% and much lower than schools like Sanders Park Elementary School (45.1%).

Overall, Renaissance Charter School At Tradition is a school of extremes: it excels in advanced subjects but struggles with foundational math skills, especially after 4th grade. Its state ranking has declined from the 58th percentile in 2016 to the 27th percentile in 2026, signaling systemic challenges. Parents should weigh the school's strong advanced programs against its math difficulties and consider how the lower funding might affect their child's experience.
