Who We Are

A charter school is an independent public school that operates independently from the sponsoring agency. Each charter school has its own Governing Board members who are charged with the oversight of the school. Charter schools operate under a clear charter contract with their sponsor with autonomy for how the instruction and processes within the individual schools are conducted. Charter schools are schools of choice and held to a high level of accountability that aligns with the Nevada Department of Education and sponsoring agency and regulations.

Innovations International Charter School is sponsored by the Nevada State Public Charter School Authority.

Charter schools are public schools and are funded with state and federal monies. No tuition is charged to the families for students who are attending.

Innovations participates in the Community Eligibility Provision (CEP) program. Under Section 504 (a) of the Healthy, Hunger Free Kids School Lunch Act, students who are enrolled receive free breakfast and lunch each day they are enrolled and attending school.

Innovations' students attending the after-school program receive dinner at no cost to families whose children stay for the tutorial program. This partnership is established with Three Square and is available to our students who stay until after 5:00pm each evening school is open.

By law, charter schools must have a fair and open admission process. Since Innovations is a public school, we cannot select or choose which students attend the school. Like other public schools, Innovations is nonsectarian and nondiscriminatory in the admission and employment practices. Students are admitted on a first-come, first-served basis and then an established lottery process is used to fill available open student positions.  Since charter schools are schools of choice, there is designated school zone boundaries.

The school has a dress code for its students. School shirts can be purchased from the office. They hold the school's emblem and are worn each day school is open unless a 'school spirit day' is called. Pants, skirts, or shorts are plain black or khaki and all shoes must be closed toed shoes for student safety.

Teachers employed at the school must meet state guidelines and be current in order to teach at Innovations. Innovations follows the Nevada Revised Statutes concerning the employment of teachers.

Innovations works hard each day to provide multiple layers of learning for struggling students. The school utilizes the Response to Intervention Process, the Section 504 Plan, Special Education Services, English Language Learners Services, and various tutorial models to assist our students.
