The Innovation School is a microschool in Bismarck, ND that focuses on learning through hands-on & inquiry-based project work. We were recognized in the Fall of 2023 for our work in changing education in the state of North Dakota through receiving recognition as a 2023 Yass Prize Quarterfinalist. The Yass Prize is considered the “Pulitzer of Education Innovation,” and we are continuing to innovate education through living our core values at The Innovation School each day: Projects, Passions, Peers and Play!
Our Mission
At The Innovation School, we believe that each child is an individual and all children are creative beings. The Innovation School respects the individual needs of children; fosters a caring and creative environment; and emphasizes the social, emotional, physical, and intellectual development of each child. Paramount to our work is cultivating an environment in which each child can discover his or her strengths and passions to explore their unique contributions and place in the world.
