2020 INNO SUMMER INSTITUTE

Program Overview

Inno is committed to a unique, interdisciplinary teaching style with an emphasis on collaboration. Our two-week academic summer program in July is designed to foster students' academic interests outside the confines of the traditional classroom. Unlike standard school subjects, our courses provide students with the opportunity to experience education at the crossroads: to investigate the intersection between seemingly unrelated disciplines. With the extensive selection of STEM and humanities courses we offer, each student is guaranteed to find subjects that align with their interests. At Inno, we believe that the right curriculum—taught by the right people—can inspire lifelong curiosity.

​Our approach to learning integrates many subjects into a single, blended experience. Unlike the conventional single-tracked mathematics, English, and science classes, our courses are intensely multidimensional. Our philosophy emphasizes real-world applications in the context of a complete, holistic curriculum. Inno courses help students develop a more in-depth and sophisticated understanding of the core essence of traditional subjects while studying them simultaneously in a symbiotic way. An interdisciplinary curriculum is exciting for students and leads to new insights in previously unexplored fields. Our summer institute also incorporates a healthy dose of recreational activities and useful life skills for a fun, balanced experience.

Course offerings for the 2020 Inno Summer Institute:

The program cost per student is $500 for the two-week program, which will be used to cover camp supplies and expenses. What is not saved and applied to future years of the Inno Summer Institute will be reinvested into youth educational efforts in our community. Generous scholarships are available for students with demonstrated financial need, and discounted tuition is available for families with multiple campers and for siblings of Inno team members (past and present).
