The mission of Schools of Innovation is to better prepare students for success in life and work by allowing districts flexibility in structure and implementation for requisite success.
Expand learning choices through innovation
Districts of Innovation and Schools of Innovation can request exemptions from regulatory areas. Section 2 of the District of Innovation legislation allows for certain exemptions and waivers from standard requirements. This added flexibility offers easier implementation of innovative programs, provided the exemptions and waivers do not violate federal regulations and are approved by the State Board of Education. Note that state assessment requirements are not eligible for waivers.
The list of standard waivers for ECHS can be found here.
