The core values at the heart of Knoxville Innovation School provide an enriched and meaningful environment for students to develop skills in critical thinking, civic engagement and creative problem solving. Our core values include the following:
Safety of mind, body, and spirit
Diverse community
Lifelong and joyful learning
Empowered independence
Empathetic connection
At KiS, we embrace and celebrate the diversity of our world. Our differences —including those of culture, race, ethnicity, religion, age, family structure, sex and sexual orientation, gender identity and expression, socioeconomics, learning style, and world view, among others — create the fabric of our community and provide opportunities for our children to appreciate and to connect with their fellow citizens. We oppose discrimination and promote the values of respect, equality, justice, peace, and personal responsibility. These values extend to our hiring practices, admission process, classroom composition, professional development, and community activities.

Our classroom is a mixed-age community. Children grow at their own pace and work at their level and to their capabilities with support from the classroom teacher. Each child is expected to reach milestones appropriate to their age and capabilities.
In addition to the standard curriculum covering language arts, reading, math, and science, students receive instruction in the arts, social studies, and history. Knoxville Innovation School’s goal is a well-rounded and informative education that focuses on student-centered learning outcomes.

Join our teachers in a dynamic classroom where every student shines.
Students and teachers should be free to create and develop in an environment that fits each child’s needs. We meet every child right where they are at to jumpstart their journey to independence and lifelong, joyful learning.
Who We Are
Individualized Learning Plans
Each student receives an individualized education plan (IEP) to meet the student where they are at so they can achieve the learning outcomes that are appropriate for them.
Strong Communication
Parents are a key component of a students learning and success. We work alongside our parents to help ensure their child can reach their full potential.
Focus on Core & STEAM
Our curriculums meet the learning outcomes of the state of Tennessee and focus on the core subjects of writing, math and science as well as a focus on STEAM topics.
Experienced, Qualified Teachers
All of our teachers are qualified and hold relevant education for the subjects they teach.
Peer-to-Peer Support
We believe learning is multi-dimensional and shouldn't just be delivered from the front of the classroom. Peers are encouraged to help and support each other to achieve their learning goals.
Afterschool Learning
This hands-on, collaborative experience offers students time to engage in self-directed experiential learning. From engineering projects to self-directed artwork and team sports, students are enriched by this student-focused and -driven time.
