Specialty Learning and Teen Program
Specialty Learning
Renaissance Institute offers learning opportunities for neurodivergent children who are seeking to expand their education. We work with students one-on-one, and within the classroom to meet them where they are at socially, emotionally, and academically.
iREN works alongside other schools within the area, and partners with them so that your child can join us through our 4-tiered program, with the goal of retransitioning them back into their school and into the classroom with the tools needed to thrive and succeed. Our program consists of 3, 5, 8, or 10 months. For additional information, see below.

Teen Program (Ages 13-18)
iREN's teen program recognizes strengths through personal interest and intrinsic determination. They learn about responsibility, independent and cooperative learning while exploring nature. This crucial moment is full of discoveries and changes. It's a time to figure out who you want to be, what you want to achieve, and where you want to go next.
At iREN, the teen campus is about creating a safe space, free from judgment and social stress, where issues are explored and the future prepared. They work toward a high school diploma while experimenting with their interests and strengths and broadening their horizons through independent and group study.
