The doors of the school are opened at 7:10 each day. Students can eat breakfast for free in the cafeteria before going to class. Breakfast ends at 7:35 am. It's crucial that students arrive at school before 7:40, as after this time, they are considered late and must be signed in by an adult. Punctuality is key to a successful school day.

Last year, less than 78% of students met the threshold for satisfactory attendance. Satisfactory attendance is characterized by being present at least 90% of the school year. That is less than seventeen days for students enrolled on the first day. This year, we are striving for 90% of students with less than 15 days absent this year. Regular attendance is crucial for students’ success. Please ensure your child arrives on time and is ready to learn daily. If your student gets sick, notify the school immediately by sending an excuse to renaissanceESattendance@fultonschools.org

or a handwritten note. Include the following information.

Student Name

Parent/Guardian signature, phone number/e-mail address

Reason for the absence

You can also elect to use Remote Learning Days. Remote days must be requested in advance of the absence. To request a remote day, notify your child’s teacher via e-mail and copy Stephannie Green, the data Clerk, at greens11@fultonschools.org. Each student earns five remote days per semester. Students will be given assignments to make up for the missed day(s) at school. When the work is returned, the student will be counted as present for the day(s) missed.

Students are encouraged to wear uniforms. The Renaissance uniform is a red or black polo-style shirt with khaki or black bottoms (shorts, pants, skirts, skorts, etc.). Students can wear a college shirt on Wednesday or a Renaissance school shirt on Friday. School T-shirts will be on sale at the front desk.

Renaissance ES will participate in the Fresh Fruit and Vegetable program. The program provides a free fruit or vegetable snack to our students. The program's goal is to expand the variety of fruits & vegetables children experience, increase their consumption of healthy foods, and impact the children's present and future health. Students will receive this snack three times per week.

The cafeteria will have extra sales like chips and ice cream for purchase during the lunch block. Students can bring cash or set up an account on MyPaymentPlus. You will need the student ID number to set up an account.
