Message from the Principal
Meet Principal Tiffany Engibous

What makes Renaissance Lutheran special?
“Renaissance Lutheran is truly a family. I believe that God has called together our team, and we genuinely love and care for each other. We are a diverse school, and each day we work together toward unity and becoming more like Jesus.”
What is your philosophy about education and its importance?
“Education is a God-given privilege and is a major gateway to success. I believe that all students can learn and if given the opportunity and support, their education will set them up for success in their futures. I have found that if school is done right, it becomes a second family where students’ educational and spiritual growth is encouraged and supported. Every student deserves to attend a school where they feel safe and are shown the love of Jesus in their interactions with their teachers and school leaders.”
What do you love about what you do?
“There are many things I love about being the principal at Renaissance Lutheran. To name just a few I would say our team, community, and the desire for excellence that surrounds us here. We are a team of people who are lifting one another up and cheering each other on. Our families and staff have a real passion to see our scholars succeed. Most of all, I love having the ability to talk about the love of Jesus and share it with everyone around me.”
What is your hope for LUMIN scholars as they grow?
“My hope for our scholars is for them to learn great personal responsibility and show grit and determination on their life and career paths. Also, I want each of them to understand their immense value and live out the purpose God has for their lives.”

Seeing the incredible transformation at Renaissance Lutheran has been so rewarding, and I am thankful to be a part of it.”
