The Innovation School

Today was our annual Arc Expo! This special showcase gives students the opportunity to display projects that highlight what they’ve learned and how they’ve grown throughout the year.

One of the best parts is that each student gets to create and present their project in their own unique way, allowing their personality, interests, and creativity to shine.

From stop motion videos, puppet shows, and a froyo bar to so many other creative ideas, our students truly amazed us today. We are so proud of all the hard work, growth, and confidence they showed!

At TIS, we participate in the National Math Challenge program. This optional opportunity is available to all students K–8 and focuses on solving challenging word problems that build critical thinking and problem-solving skills in math.

Throughout the year, students can complete 15 different math challenges. Any student who completed at least 12 out of the 15 earned an end-of-year prize…Fizzily - Custom Sodas & Gourmet Popcorn! We are so proud of the students who pushed themselves to take on these extra challenges throughout the year! 🧠➕🎉

Our students set a goal to raise $500 for the Alberta Heights Fire Relief Fund… and together, our community raised $518! ❤️

Two of our older students helped lead the project, but it truly became an all-school effort.

Students researched where the funds could make the biggest impact and chose the North Dakota Community Foundation because 100% of the proceeds go directly to the families affected.

Our hearts go out to everyone impacted by the Alberta Heights fire. Thank you, TIS families and community, for your generosity and support.

Last night was our community potluck, and it was such a special evening together. Nine years ago, our very first and oldest class started at The Innovation School as 4th graders. This year, they will graduate as seniors, and it was so great having some of these young men back with us last night.

We loved welcoming current families, new families, alumni, and graduating seniors all in one space. Nights like these are such a powerful reminder of the community that has grown alongside our school over the years. 💜
