Why Independent Study?
As an independent study school, our responsibility is to make sure that all students have the same access to services and resources as students in a regular school program.
Under Education Code 51747, we must identify students who are not making sufficient progress in one or more of the areas listed above and develop a plan for intervention.
This will be done for your student with your input. If your student continues to not make adequate progress by the next grading period, your student will need to return to their regular, neighborhood school program.
If you have any questions, please contact the school site.
Enrollment Information
To enroll at AOI, a student must be enrolled in HUSD and then fill out an application at our website or at this link. Applications will be processed in order of submission and are subject to available space.
If you have any questions, please contact our school site.
About us
The Academy of Innovation is a K-12 independent study school founded to meet the unique needs of Hemet Unified School District students. Our program provides a more flexible, individual educational experience for each student whether on campus or online. While we provide the same curriculum, we blend instruction through a mix of teacher instruction and independent student-led learning.
Our high school students earn a diploma and, while attending AOI, may participate in the programs and athletics of their schools of residence.
Our teachers, staff, and administration are well-versed in the independent study and online education worlds and have years of experience providing unique educational opportunities for students seeking alternative options.
Our teachers provides tutoring outside of regular instruction as well as a robust number of academic, social, and emotional supports for students.
Program Options
Online
Students in grades 1-5 will receive daily instruction through Google Classroom with their fully credentialed teachers. Our teachers follow the same curriculum provided at other Hemet Unified schools. There is no online kindergarten offered at AOI.
Students in grades 6-8 will have daily contact with their teachers but will receive two days of online instruction through a Monday/Thursday or Tuesday/Friday schedule and work independently the other three days of the week.
Students in grades 9-12 will receive two days of online instruction through a Monday/Thursday or Tuesday/Friday schedule and work independently the other three days of the week.
Hybrid
Students in grades K-5 will receive daily instruction through two days of in-person instruction and three days of online instruction.
Students in grades 6-12 will receive two days of in-person instruction through a Monday/Thursday or Tuesday/Friday schedule and work independently the other three days of the week.
STEAM Wednesdays
Throughout the school year, our students participate in our on-site STEAM Wednesday activities.
For grades K-5, these are optional enrichment activities to enhance instruction in CA state standards. Alternative online activities are also provided.
For grades 6-8, these Wednesday lessons are part of all middle school elective offerings. These lessons will also have an alternate online option.
