IA Newsletter: The Scorpion
February 2021
Message from Principal McConnell
February is a very exciting time at Innovation Academy! Students and classes are wrapping up projects for the Innovation Academy Science and Engineering Fair. Projects will be judged and the most creative and innovative projects will advance to the Southern Arizona Regional Science and Engineering Foundation, Science and Engineering Fair.
Innovation Academy students have had incredible success at SARSEF. In three years, we have had 128 projects deemed exemplary, winning 173 awards, 25 scholarships, and over $3,500.00 in prize money.
Like everything else at this time SARSEF will be held virtually, March 1st-March 6th.
Spirit Days
Student Council has declared every Tuesday as Kind Tuesday and every Friday as IA Color Day. Spread Kindness every day, but make Tuesday extra special. Wear your kind gear on Tuesdays. On Fridays, sport your IA gear or the school colors, Orange, Purple, Blue.
