Welcome to
Renaissance School of the Arts

Renaissance School of the Arts is the hidden gem of the District 4 community. RSA is an open enrollment middle school, grades 6-8, founded in 2008 by Dr. Tammy Pate. The school focuses on the arts with three majors that students can choose from: band, dance, and visual arts.

​

The standard middle school curricula has expanded to include high school level regents courses in algebra I and living environment for all 8th graders. The arts program has streamlined into a pre-conservatory style, technique based program that students engage in daily. This prepares students to compete in the rigorous admission auditions for specialized NYC high schools. RSA has a small community filled with passionate educators and loving, happy families all working together to promote well-being and success for our students.
