					<description><![CDATA[Renaissance Students and Families, school starts Monday! 
We are very excited to welcome you back. 
It is a late start schedule, so we need all students to enter the Dozier St Gate by 9am at the latest to make sure you have time to find your first class, turn in any enrollment papers, and get a chromebook device. 
Let’s start this year strong by having great attendance and showing some school Spirit! For every day you arrive on time as well as participate in our Spirit Days you will receive another entry to win Free Dodgers tickets for our August 29th ELARA Dodgers Night!
Show up and show out in your Renaissance Purple on Monday!
