School Profile

The focus for education at Innovation Middle School is Science, Technology, Engineering & Mathematics (STEM).  We propose to offer this rigorous curriculum embedded in 21st century technology skills and in a reduced class-size setting.  The talented and collaborative staff have the ability and passion to utilize technology in their everyday teaching in order to engage students.  With projects that include Podcasts, WebQuests, videoconferencing and video production, laptops, online resources and digital content, iMiddle students will learn first and foremost by doing and actively participating in the learning process.  We will present authentic, challenging, and meaningful experiences which require students to solve practical, real world problems and apply technology to meet California Standards for Education.  At Innovation Middle, we intend to inspire not simply science and math students, but scientists and mathematicians, and are seeking to nurture the next generation of leaders.  Innovation is now enrolling for Fall 2008.
