Breaking Ground

The School of Innovative Learning was started by Nicole Waicunas who has twenty-two years of experience in the field of education. Nicole has brought together a team of passionate and diverse professionals who are dedicated to creating an environment in which children can learn and thrive on their own terms. The school will be based in Stafford Springs, Connecticut. The curriculum is evidence-based, student-driven, and can be modified to fit the needs of any child, regardless of any barriers. Now that we have created a team, a curriculum, and established ourselves as a non-profit organization, we are in the beginning stages of fundraising so that we can make this vision a reality.  

The first step in breaking ground on our vision is to procure a building for our school.  The School of Innovative Learning hopes to lease or purchase what was formerly Baker's Country Furniture in Stafford Springs, Connecticut.  In order to do this, we must raise approximately $100,000 to place a down payment, make 12 months worth of mortgage/lease payments, and have the funds to renovate the building.
