Thank you for visiting the Innovation Middle School website. We are very proud of what has been achieved our inaugural school year, especially the earning of an A school grade by the Florida Department of Education! This is a great accomplishment for a brand new school and we couldn't have done it without the support of our amazing Lake Nona community.
I am excited to continue to lead a dedicated and expert leadership team and staff focused on student achievement. The Innovation community is extremely supportive and we invite all of our community and families to be an active part of our school.
This site has been designed to provide you with important information about our school. We hope that our website will continue to keep you involved by providing the necessary information about academics, performances, upcoming events, athletics, and all the other happenings at Innovation Middle School.
We have 2 chorus events this week. Tuesday, December 18, they will be performing at Cathedral Church of St. Luke.

If you have not already done so, you can order your Innovation Middle literacy shirt through December 19, for only $10. The sale of the shirts will support our Literacy Lanai and Maker Space in the Media Center. Go to tinlyurl.com/IMSLiteracyTee to order yours today.
This Thursday is the last day of school of 2018 and we will be on a Wednesday schedule. In the last hour of the day, students will either attend the Faculty vs. Students volleyball game or attend a movie in the Media Center. This will be a fun way to end the quarter before our winter break!
This holiday season we encourage all of our families to clean out their closets! We have installed a clothing and shoe donation bin in our front parking lot to provide clothing items for families in need in our community. Please consider donating items to our donation bin to support families in need this holiday season.
Remember, there is no school this Friday, December 21. On behalf of the entire faculty and staff of Innovation Middle School, I hope everyone has a safe and restful winter break. We will return from the break on Monday, January 7, 2019.
Hector Maestre, Ed.D.
