Students spend the majority of their day in-program taking core classes. Classes are uniquely structured to the student so they can learn at the pace they need and in the style that’s most productive for them and their success. This could include a variety of hands-on opportunities in lieu of traditional testing.

Students at the Innovation Center participate in standards-based learning. Their individual progress is tracked through a program called Otus, allowing students, parents, and staff to monitor their learning progress. After a student has completed the identified standards for the subject and or grade level, they receive a grade in Skyward. Students can then progress to the next related set of standards truly allowing them to advance as they are able, but also providing additional time as needed in standards that take a little longer to master.
As students advance, they can take dual-credit courses that earn them high school and college credit through West Valley Virtual Academy and Registered Apprenticeships.
Students work with a career counselor to monitor their progress and align their learning to their future aspirations.
Students choose a career pathway program that aligns with their personal and career interests. Every morning, all year long, a cohort of innovators (students) and an industry expert designer (teacher) learn through lessons and projects with embedded standards from industry and core subject areas. Each cohort is able to go in-depth with project-based learning related to their area of interest throughout the entire school year.
In the mid-morning session, students work with their grade level peers on project-based learning assignments that integrate state standards in academic core areas.
In the afternoon, students work with their grade level peers to explore other program areas with the integration of core content standards.
Students spend their day in their chosen program area advancing their related skills, pursuing projects of interest continuing to earn high school credits and earning industry certifications. The school partners with AJAC and local employers to place students in workplace learning experiences and Registered Apprenticeships prior to and throughout their senior year. Students in Grades 10-12 have the option to take College-in-the-High-School and/or specific electives, such as band and choir, at West Valley High School in Period 1 and 2 and then return to the Innovation Center for the remainder of their day.
