WELCOME TO THE ILC
Welcome to the Innovation Learning Center (ILC) at Niu Valley Middle School.
The ILC supports NVMS students and teachers with flexible seating and state-of-the-art digital tools to allow school-related ideas and projects to soar.
Teachers use the ILC as an extension of the classroom, either bringing their entire class or sending individuals or small groups of students to create tangible or digital products. Movable furniture and large screen monitors accommodate groups of up to 50 (table-seating) or up to 75 (floor-seating).
The ILC also offers traditional library resources, including books, graphic novels, and online articles and videos. Curl up on a sofa to read a good book. Use one of the Mac computers or Google Chromebooks to complete and print assignments. Find a quiet place to work before, during or after class.
