New! News from our Parent Crew!:

THANK YOU PARENT CREW!

The Renaissance Staff and Parent Crew Board want to share their gratitude for the outpouring of support this year.  If you haven't started tracking your 40 hours yet, (or 60 for families with multiple students at REMS), please log in to Track-It Forward today!

If you're still looking for ways to get involved, especially for families who work during the school day, please reach out to the Renaissance Auction committee who need anything from sponsorships to phone calls & emails made, and more! This is our biggest fundraiser of the year, without which we cannot sustain the levels of support around our building and continue to supplement voyage costs!

There are also lots of little ways to support REMS that are deeply appreciated, with Staff Appreciation, Car Line support, and planning Student Showcase celebrations. (See a list of many opportunities here.)

Again, we deeply appreciate your commitment to volunteering at least 40 hours as a REMS family. Without you, we can't make the magic happen!

REMS Auction Fundraiser Returns April 23rd!
