Wilkinson Elementary is a Renaissance School

 Renaissance is a process that encourages academic excellence, academic improvement and citizenship. Founded by educators in 1988, Josten’s renaissance is the first and only national education focused program created to recognize and reward the academic achievements of students from elementary school through college. It’s primary goals are to increase student performance and teacher enthusiasm, and raise the level of community participation in schools.

 The Renaissance Program will focus on four main target areas in our school:

  •          Increased Student Attendance

  •          Improved Overall Academic Performance

  •          Increased FCAT and other Standardized Testing Scores

  •      Creating a Positive, Safe School Climate

 Renaissance encourages the involvement of parents and local businesses.  In fact, many of the rewards that will be given to the students will be provided b the community.  Wilkinson Elementary School encourages its parents and “staffulty” to support these establishments in recognition of their contributions to the children of Sarasota.
