District administrators use the Renaissance Next for Leaders setting in Product Administration to determine when administrators will see Renaissance Next for Leaders as their Home page.
Renaissance Next for Leaders gives administrators insight into students' performance in Star, Star CBM, Star Phonics, and SAEBRS/mySAEBRS assessments, Accelerated Reader quizzes, myON reading, Lalilo practice, and Freckle practice across subjects. The Home page in Renaissance Next for Leaders gives administrators a quick overview of student activity in their school or district; depending on the products available, administrators may see how many students have taken assessments in the current screening window, how many students are actively practicing in daily practice products, and tips for getting the most out of Renaissance solutions. They can also choose to explore specific data more or to open their products or reports. For more information, see Renaissance Next for Leaders Home Page.
Renaissance Next for Leaders will become the Home page for administrators at all schools July 1, 2025. At that point, by default, administrators will go to Renaissance Next for Leaders instead of the previous Home page when they log in.
If you prefer that Renaissance Next for Leaders become the Home page for your administrators at a later date, you can use the Renaissance Next for Leaders setting to choose a different date between July 1, 2025 and January 1, 2026.

How Do I Get to the Renaissance Next for Leaders Setting?
- On the Home page, select your initials in the upper-right corner. In the drop-down list, select Manage Apps & Users.
- Select Product Administration.
- Select Renaissance Next for Leaders under Rollout Pacing.
How to Change the Setting
- Select the date field on the Renaissance Next setting page.
- In the calendar that opens, select the new date when administrators will see Renaissance Next for Leaders instead of the previous Home page. Use the arrows at the top of the calendar to navigate to the month, then select the day. The date must be between July 1, 2025 and January 1, 2026.
- Select Save Changes. (The Undo Changes button lets you undo any changes you have made.) When you're done, select < Back at the top of the page to go back to the Product Administration page.
For the first 90 days after the date you set, administrators will have the option to opt out of the new Renaissance Next for Leaders Home page and go back to the old (legacy) Home page. They will still have access to Renaissance Next for Leaders through a tile on that Home page.
These administrators can opt back in to the new Home page experience using a toggle at the top of the old Home page (shown below). After 90 days, all administrators will be switched to the new Renaissance Next for Leaders Home page and will no longer have the opt out option.
