Ankeny Innovation Center

The Innovative Secondary School is a progressive initiative designed to address the increasing needs of the expanding Ankeny community. As the community grows, the demand for enhanced infrastructure, especially in education and youth career development, also rises.

Planning is underway to develop a new educational center for the communities’ youth. This school will not only offer traditional learning but also serve as a platform for students to access resources that enhance their education and career prospects. It plans to merge existing programs with expanded career options, offering specialized programs in a variety of fields such as culinary arts, technology, construction, agriculture, welding, automotive, and robotics.

These programs aim to equip students with practical skills and knowledge, preparing them for a prosperous future. A unique feature of this project is its collaboration with local community colleges. This partnership is designed to provide students with a smooth transition from secondary education to higher education, thereby boosting their career opportunities.

The Innovative Secondary School project is a testament to Ankeny’s commitment to its community’s future, ensuring that the next generation has the necessary tools and opportunities to excel in their future careers.
