Renaissance: A New Commitment to Excellence!

Renaissance is a recognition and incentives program with three major goals:

1) to focus on and emphasize academics and academic excellence;
2) to recognize and reward student achievement;
3) to recognize and reward staff achievement.

Tremper Renaissance is under the administration of the Academic Affairs Committee of Student Government. The Committee meets during advisory to discuss and implement the various Renaissance programs.

BANK (Be A Nice Kid) acknowledges exceptional acts of caring and kindness. Students are rewarded with a certificate of appreciation and a food coupon.

TOP (Tremper Outstanding Person) is an award given to students who have demonstrated excellence or significant improvement in the areas of effort, behavior or class performance. Faculty members nominate students for this award once each month.

ME (Maximum Effort) is awarded at the 1st week grading quarter of each semester. This recognition is awarded to C and D students meeting such requirements as good attendance, working up to one's full potential, and productivity in class. Students are rewarded with a certificate and a food coupon.
