Hey Maker!

Welcome to Innovation Academy—where your ideas come to life!  We’ve got laser cutters, 3D printers, woodworking tools, and a metal workshop, all waiting for you to explore.

I’ve spent over 10 years teaching in classrooms all across the country, and I know every kid has their own unique spark. That’s why at Innovation Academy, you’ll have the freedom to try new things, make mistakes, and discover your genius at your own pace.

As a mom to an awesome Special Education student, I want you to know this is a space where everyone is welcome. No matter how you learn, this is a place to tinker, experiment, and grow.

Let’s build something amazing together. You’re officially an engineer now—let’s get to work!
