#78 Subject2014-08-20 18:37Its my junior year, I'm apart of Renaissance Varsity Choir and I got invited to do an audition to be apart of Renaissance A-Chord, I made it and ever since the school year was over I've been waiting to come back and start singing with this group, now that they've taken away the music I have nothing to look forward to this school year. Why take away the things that make up this school. Whoever decided this is making a huge mistake. Now this school is gonna be like every other DPS and that's not a good thing. The only things that ever stay are basketball,football,and baseball which only consists of a small portion of the students, but the music and dance departments consists of so many students its not hard to notice. Please rethink this whole situation and bring back our music, our dance, our rotating schedule, our clubs and sports. |

#812014-08-20 18:51Renaissance High School has provided quality education for an uncounted amount of young adults that have went into the world and made a difference in countless ways. To provide a quality education in a city that has been as abused as Detroit, is monumental and decreasing the quality of such education will be unchartably detrimental to the future of Detroit and surrounding communities. |

#822014-08-20 18:52I have been an exchange student at RHS, and i found the school incredibly amazing. This was due to the entire spirit at the school, which was shaped because of not only the great teachers, but also because of the variety in subjects such as arts. I myself had choir when there which i found great! Save RHS |

#832014-08-20 19:09I don't understand how DPS expects to keep and attract students to their schools when they can't keep fine arts at more than one of their schools.. Public schools outside Detroit have things like this at their school... but in Detroit, it's special, or extra... I just don't understand... |

#842014-08-20 19:13I sign up for dance and I cant get it because of them removing programs. Thats not fair for the people who like and want dance. |

#872014-08-20 20:27#SAVERHS Our schools and are youth are not able to succeed unless they are able to grow in a freeing and supportive environment, and if they are nurtured to be the best they can be. That is the Renaissance way. We cannot have a college-preparatory environment that is not focusing on fully growing our youth into well-rounded citizens. Our students work hard, and fight hard, to be in an environment that has promised to do right by them. Let us continue to do so. |

#902014-08-20 20:55What happened to the funding the casinos are suppose to provide for education in Michigan / Detroit? Is the funding going towards schools outside of Detroit? The citizens impacted by the presence of the casinos attend schools in Detroit, MI, RHS being one of them. If anything, more money needs to be going towards RHS and other DPS schools. |

#942014-08-20 23:02Renaissance must keep its quality education. The current and future students deserve an institution that will provide them with the tools and resources for success. |

#962014-08-20 23:25As a product of Renaissance's fine arts department, I am deeply disheartened by the news of the program being cut. The arts have been scientifically proven to enhance and improve academics. Aside from that, it is also necessary to have a positive creative outlet for our youth. Cutting programs will leave our teens to their own devices and to negative environmental influences. There has to be some way to keep the arts in our school. |

#972014-08-20 23:48If you take away the arts you take away the scholarships. Some kids can make it on academic alone. Keep the pperforming arts at Renaissance. |

#992014-08-20 23:49The recent decisions made by DPS for their schools have been terrible and this is truly one of the worst yet. |

#1002014-08-21 00:03I am completely horrified to hear the extent of what is happening at the place that I spent 4 years of my life growing, changing and becoming part of the person I am today. To cut the visual and performing arts programs from Renaissance High School will destroy the spirit of what this institution has pioneered for decades as beacon of higher education in the city of Detroit. Giving young people the ability to express themselves creatively is a crucial part of development and opens their minds to a world of endless possibilities. Please support #SaveRHS and know that I will do all I can to stop this from happening. |
