Designed with Your Scholar’s
Safety in Mind
Innovate Academy is located on a beautiful 18-acre campus shared with a vibrant church community. To ensure safety across all hours of the school day, we maintain layered, proactive security protocols designed to protect scholars while preserving a warm, joyful school atmosphere.
Our Safety Measures Include:
-
We partner with trained security personnel who monitor campus activity, oversee morning arrivals and afternoon dismissals, and maintain a visible presence throughout the day.
-
All visitors enter through one monitored entrance and must check in through our security protocols before moving through the building.
-
Exterior doors remain secured during school hours. Only authorized staff and personnel have access to secure entry points.
-
Strategically placed cameras help our security team monitor hallways, entrances, parking areas, and gathering spaces.
-
Our team receives ongoing training for emergency situations including shelter-in-place, evacuation, weather incidents, and medical emergencies.
-
We maintain active relationships with local law enforcement, fire, and medical response teams to ensure rapid coordination if needed.
-
A structured system for drop-off and pickup ensures efficient, supervised movement of students in and out of the building.
