Made it to the school and there young man at the front entrance told us they tour was for the next following week....no one called me to notify me that the date was changed...i drove from the gables to this location which was not a short drive. I woke up my kids at 6 am just to not miss the tour...no accountability the lady caucasian with glasses didn't even tell me her name told me the day was changed and pretty much to accept what she said . I told her this was unnapceptable and my impression of this was not good at all. Very messy unprofessional and thank god i didn't place my son here and more of a reason i homeschool. Just for looks and nothing to show for it. I could not imagine how they run these kids in this school.

Hello, I am a parent who enrolled my special needs autistic daughter at New Renaissance Middle…read moreSchool when my daughter was transitioning from 5th grade in Elementary School to 6th grade in Middle School because this was her home school based on our zip code, I honestly did not want to put her in the school because I had read other bad reviews but after applying for a re-assignments 3 times and getting denied, I had no choice but to enroll her at this school. I made sure I provided medical documentations to the school to inform them of the multiple health challenges my daughter has besides autism spectrum disorder, she was placed in an Exceptional Student Education class, on last month on February 24th the teacher called me to inform me that my daughter was having an autism crisis, they never told me that they were going to physically restrain her until I arrived to the school and my daughter was already put on hand cuffs, then the ESE specialist handed me a notice of physical restraint for me to sigh as if they informed me before they put her in hand cuffs, my daughter had an Registered Behavioral Tech who attended school with her daily but on that day in particular her teacher decided to separate her from her Registered Behavioral Tech while he had our daughter take a test when I had already spoke to the ESE specialist in the beginning of the school year and ask for my daughter not to be separated from her behavioral tech since she was there to help address behavior because they tried to give her speech and language therapy without her Registered Behavioral Tech going with her. As a result, my daughter was Baker Acted and transported in a police car in hand cuffs as if she was a criminal, when there was no need for that because once my husband and I arrived at the school our daughter was calmed and on her cuffs, my husband was able to walk her out of the school and put her in our vehicle with no problems, that's when the Police officer who works at the school said she needed to get evaluated and off course my husband and I did not refuse thinking our child was going to get evaluated and sent home after evaluation the same day because she (the officer never said it was a baker act initially and what that meant) but when we got to the hospital the social worker explained and said our 12 year old daughter who had never being left with no one else other than her immediate family had to stay for a 72 hours hold in a psychiatric unit and we could not stay with her but just visit her once a day in the evenings that was so traumatic for us all. and we come to find out that it is illegal to baker act a child with autism in Florida. I am writing this review in hopes that this does not happen to any other child with special needs or autism spectrum disorder at this school. My husband and I agreed to withdraw our daughter from this school because her and all our family experienced such trauma from this event and needless to say we did not trust the school anymore.
