Empowering Young Minds to Innovate and Lead. Shaping a Brighter Future with Purpose and Passion.
Life At Innovate Academy
At Innovate Academy, our commitment extends far beyond academics; we passionately aim to nurture the whole student, fostering well-rounded Innovators who understand the importance of both rigorous effort and joyful engagement. We believe that a balanced approach, where students learn to work hard and play hard, cultivates resilience, teamwork, and a lifelong love of learning. Innovate is dedicated to exposing students to a diverse array of activities that they might not typically encounter in traditional school settings. This broad exposure sparks curiosity, encourages exploration of new talents, and enriches their overall development. Furthermore, we recognize the value of competitive sports in building character, discipline, and camaraderie, and thus provide opportunities for students to participate.
Our on-site extracurricular activities are a direct reflection of our students’ passions! We pride ourselves on our agility, flexing our offerings to align with the evolving interests and needs of our dynamic student body. This responsiveness is a hallmark of the small, private school experience at Innovate. We actively listen to our stakeholders regarding extracurriculars and readily adapt based on students’ individual interests. Currently, our vibrant on-campus options include:
- Cross Country cultivates not just physical endurance but also mental fortitude and an appreciation for the natural world, often translating to improved focus and perseverance in academic pursuits.
- Trap Shooting demands intense concentration and precision, skills that can enhance focus and attention to detail in various academic disciplines.
- Chess Club is a dynamic arena for honing strategic thinking, problem-solving abilities, and foresight – skills that are directly applicable to mathematics, science, and even everyday decision-making.
- Krav Maga equips students with practical self-defense skills, fostering not only physical fitness but also a heightened sense of confidence and self-awareness.
- Girls on the Run uniquely blends physical activity with crucial life skills development, empowering young women with confidence, resilience, and a strong sense of self-worth, positively impacting their social and emotional well-being.
- Archery develops exceptional focus, hand-eye coordination, and patience, attributes that can contribute to improved concentration in academic tasks.
Beyond our engaging on-site activities, Innovate Academy & Preparatory has cultivated strong, collaborative relationships with surrounding public schools and their established athletic programs. Recognizing our small community size, our leadership proactively facilitates tryouts for students eager to participate in competitive sports at their closest residential public school. This unique partnership allows our students to experience the thrill of competitive team sports within larger school environments, all while benefiting from the personalized attention and close-knit community that defines the Innovate Academy academic experience. Currently, our students proudly represent neighboring public schools in sports such as:
- Golf, demanding precision and mental strategy, often translates to improved focus and analytical skills.
