About TRCS 2
Welcome to The Renaissance Charter School 2!
TRCS 2 embarked on our 1st year of operation in September 2020, with in-person learning. We implemented all Covid related guidance from the NYC Department of Health to ensure the health and safety of our families. We continue to offer professional development opportunities to our teachers to support their growth as hybrid educators for occasional asynchronous learning days. We believe our strong partnership with families made our first year a success.
In a small, village-like setting, Renaissance provides a supportive environment. Staff and parents work together to develop students’ academic and leadership skills. Teachers collaborate on developing integrated subject matter, innovative approaches to learning, and improved practice. This ideal faculty-student ratio helps strengthen each student’s sense of belonging.
In many grades, students stay with the same dedicated teachers for two years, providing stability and enabling each student to feel cared for and well-known. The K-1 program will continue to grow yearly until it reaches a PK- 12th grade level. Renaissance enables students and families to enjoy a sense of continuity and stability as the students progress from elementary school to high school. Among the school’s myriad attributes is its liberating atmosphere – informal work settings replace traditional desks and chairs. To further enhance its accommodating learning culture, Renaissance encourages students of various age groups to work together, yet places a high value on individual performance.
Renaissance is a Summer Food Site
