Charters have made incredible progress in the communities they serve by providing choice to families and raising student achievement. There are many unique charter programs in San Diego County, including project-based learning, dual language immersion and personalized learning options for families to choose from. Academic achievement and college and career preparedness are common goals in charter schools; many are exceeding expectations. The way I see it, in the 21st century’s ever-changing and highly competitive world, our students require an education that is bold and breaks the mold, bringing creativity and passion for learning that goes beyond the classroom.

Hey Everyone,
There is a contest going on right now for some of the best schools around. We think IA is wonderful and we know others do too:

"We are deeply happy with I.A.This is our 1st year with IA, after years of just trying to cope with the public school system, we never had a weeknight evening that wasn't full of stress from 2 hours of homework, it would leave us no family time. We are BLESSED to have found IA and their project based learning. I also appreciate that you believe in fostering a positive home life with minimal to NO homework! Our daughter is in 5th grade, and next year, our son will be joining the kinder class. Thanks Danielle and Christine and Bill for the great communication with your students! I couldn't thank you enough." - Finnegan Family
"I am absolutely in love with Innovations Academy. My daughter, Cloe, is in the second grade, and I have watched her confidence and excitement about school grow with every day that passes. The project-based learning has expanded Cloe's concept of learning so even though she doesn't have specific homework, she talks about what she has learned in class and applies it at home and outside the classroom. We are actually engaged in the learning process more constructively and more thoroughly than when she had specific homework assignments." - Maland Family
