Vision

Be Happy | Belong | Be Excellent.

Be Happy Happiness, as described by Dr. Tal Ben Shahar, former Professor of Positive Psychology at Harvard University, arises from positive engagement in three areas: meaning, strengths, and pleasure. In a well-run school, students discover these elements through focusing on their pursuits and personal growth. While happiness is not the primary goal, it naturally emerges as a by-product of a successful educational environment.

Belong emphasizes the importance of creating a strong sense of community and being a part of something great within the school. Renaissance International School values the power of meaningful connections, collaboration, and inclusivity. By fostering a sense of belonging, students feel valued, supported, and connected to their peers, to their teachers, and to the wider school community.

Be Excellent reflects our commitment to developing exceptional experiences for our students and faculty.  As the saying goes: “Aim for the stars and you may hit the moon!” By encouraging students and faculty to set high standards for themselves as well as supporting them in their academic pursuits, Renaissance School fosters a culture of excellence and achievement.  This fully empowers students to reach their full potential.
