Summary

Renaissance Alternative High School is a small Bremerton, Washington, alternative school serving 81 students in grades 9–12 within the Bremerton School District, about 1.22 miles from Bremerton High School. The school serves a substantially more economically disadvantaged population than many nearby comparison schools: 72.84% of students qualified for free or reduced-price lunch in 2024–2025, compared with 55.9% at Bremerton High School and 28.4% at the similarly sized Eagle Harbor High School. Its small size and alternative-school mission mean that direct comparisons with traditional high schools should be made cautiously.

The school’s most important challenge is student completion. Its 2024–2025 graduation rate was 40.0%, compared with 72.7% districtwide and 77.6% at Bremerton High School. Its dropout rate was 31.1%—an improvement from 42.8% in 2021–2022, but still far above the district’s 16.2% and the state’s 9.8%. Nearby schools reported much stronger outcomes, including 92.2% graduation at Olympic High School and 90.7% at South Kitsap High School. The school’s statewide ranking has improved considerably, from the 5th percentile in 2023–2024 to the 23rd percentile most recently, although it remains rated one star.

Academically, English language arts is a relative strength: 45.0% of students were proficient in 2025–2026, above the district’s 37.57% but below the state’s 52.81%. Science proficiency was weaker at 31.25%, below both district and state results. Math proficiency is listed as “—” because the state suppressed the result to protect student privacy; it should be considered unknown, not zero. A low student-to-teacher ratio of 14.4 and per-student spending of $22,245 may support individualized attention, credit recovery, and re-engagement. Overall, recent progress is encouraging, but attendance, credit completion, persistence, and graduation remain the central priorities.
