Boone County Schools cordially invites you to Celebrate the Innovation in Education annual luncheon 


Innovative teaching engages students which in turn empowers communities.   Boone County Schools looks beyond what is currently done, identifying  future ideas , putting them in to practice.  Today's students face a different kind of job market than their parents did, so they need a different kind of education.

You will see students' innovative learning and design thinking on display and get to talk to them about the kind of things they are learning in this Distinguished district. 

The mission of Innovation in the Boone County Schools  is to transform students into creative and critical thinkers giving them flexibility in their learning.  

Date: Thursday, October 22, 2015
Time: 11:30 a.m. -1 p.m.
