Core Program: On-Campus Year Long
💡 What Are Innovation Membership Days?
Innovation Membership Days are where curiosity, creativity, and community come alive. Located on 10+ acres of natural space in Cedar Park (Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Fridays) and 50+ acres at Twin Lakes YMCA on Mondays, our learners spend their days immersed in open space, hands-on learning, and meaningful connection.
Each day blends structured classes with child-led exploration, giving Innovators the freedom to dive into chosen classes, collaborate on projects, explore outdoors, and grow through play. From our morning Launch gatherings rooted in social-emotional learning to immersive project-based experiences, every moment is designed to build confidence, curiosity, and belonging.
Families can enroll one to four days per week, creating a rhythm that fits their learner, because membership at Innovation is more than attending classes, it’s an invitation to explore, create, and truly belong. ✨
🌿 Mondays: Discovery Days at Twin Lakes YMCA
Discovery Studio is a nature based program with science at its core. Innovators spend the majority of their day immersed in the 50 acre natural world exploring forests, observing ecosystems, conducting hands-on experiments, and asking big questions about how our world works.
Environmental and life sciences anchor the experience, while movement, curiosity, and connection guide the rhythm of the day. Each semester, Innovators choose their rotating electives, such as art, PE, or cooking, giving them agency in shaping their learning experience. These electives integrate creativity, collaboration, and practical skills alongside scientific exploration.
🧩 Mosaic Program
Mosaic is Innovation’s pathway designed to create a strong community of neurodivergent and differently wired learners within our project based model. Guides provide additional structure, executive functioning support, and individualized scaffolding so Innovators can fully engage in hands on, interest-driven learning.
Mosaic learners participate in project based experiences and join our Monday Discovery Studio students throughout the day, remaining integrated in community while receiving intentional supports. The program intentionally creates space for AuDHD and other neurodivergent Innovators to learn alongside peers with similar wiring, offering powerful mirroring and affirmation.
