When the application goes live, you will not have one for WSOI but rather "If your child is not already enrolled in a PBL environment for grades 9-12, please contact Jennifer Felke, WSOI Director, by phone (574) 914-4849 at extension 1302 or email [email protected].‪"

Parents can apply for their child/children to attend the following schools and grades:

  • Washington Discovery Academy – (K-4)
  • Innovation Academy @ Riverside – (5-6)
  • Innovation Academy @ Lincoln – (7-8)
  • Weidner School of Inquiry @ Plymouth High School – (9-12)

Project Based Learning is an alternative instructional approach that is characterized by hands-on learning that engages students and presents them with opportunities to connect their learning with the world around them.

All four of our PBL schools have been deemed exemplary schools and National Demonstration Sites for the New Tech Network (NTN). Demonstration site schools host tours for national, state, and local schools and districts to experience a New Tech school firsthand and play a key role in the development and scale of the NTN.

Applications are open to students in grades K-12. Current PCSC PBL learners do not need to apply.
