Renaissance School of the Eastern Shore - Daphne

Baldwin County Virtual School was Alabama's first virtual high school. We give Baldwin County Public Schools students in grades 7 to 12 a fully accredited, flexible way to earn a diploma from home, with campus locations in Daphne, Bay Minette and Foley for in-person support. Our course offerings include honors, advanced and Advanced Placement classes, and high school students can take dual enrollment courses through Coastal Alabama Community College in both academic and technical subjects. Response to Instruction (RTI) is part of how we support students who need extra help. Learning online does not mean missing out on school life. Students join FBLA, the Fellowship of Christian Athletes, Future Teachers of America, the Spanish National Honor Society and Scholars' Bowl for 7th and 8th graders. Our Pelican Players Theatre Club stages productions such as Clue and inducts members into the International Thespian Society, and Pelicans for Paws, our club for animal lovers, takes field trips and volunteers in the community.

Baldwin County Public Schools, the fastest-growing school system in Alabama, is dedicated to fostering a nurturing educational environment where every student can achieve their potential. Serving a diverse student body, including those with various learning needs, the schools emphasize a curriculum that integrates Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Math (STEAM), promoting creativity, critical thinking, and problem-solving skills essential for navigating an evolving world. With a commitment to safety and well-being, Baldwin County Public Schools ensures that trained resource officers are present on all campuses daily. The district stands out for its strong community partnerships and innovative programs like the Operation Round Up Star Light Award, which supports teachers in enhancing classroom learning through creative projects. Additionally, with over 4,000 dedicated employees and a low student-to-teacher ratio, Baldwin County Public Schools provides personalized attention to students while offering a wide range of extracurricular activities and sports to enrich their educational experience. This holistic approach not only prepares students academically but also nurtures their social and emotional development within an inclusive community.

Daphne Middle School was built in 1993 at the corner of County Road 13 and Whispering Pines Road, and a natural wetland sits right on our campus. We serve public school students in grades 7 and 8 who live in the Daphne feeder pattern in Baldwin County, and our program centers on three values: respect, reliability and responsibility. Students choose from interest clubs, service clubs and a sports program that includes soccer, basketball, volleyball and football. Our band performs at district and area concerts, and our art students are selected for local and state competitions. A Parent Teacher Organization supports the school, and we keep resources on hand for military families.
