CSI Application Form (Student Section)
Student Application for Admission
Chelan School of Innovation (CSI) is a high school in the Lake Chelan School District that focuses on project-based,
interest-driven learning and personalized education. CSI is not a credit-retrieval program or traditional alternative
school. CSI is a school that allows students to explore their passions, talents and curiosities. CSI emphasizes 21st Century skills such as leadership, entrepreneurship, critical thinking, problem solving and creativity. Students attending CSI will work closely with advisors, community members and mentors to establish internships, set personal, academic and career goals, and take personal interest projects from concept to completion.
Chelan School of Innovation is another pathway for students in the Lake Chelan School District. Expectations are
rigorous, and applicants must understand that CSI is not “the easy option.” It is the expectation of students attending
that they assume ownership of and are responsible for their education. Attending CSI requires a high level of
independence, accountability and creative initiative. Students must be self-driven and have strong time management
skills. Students and parents are strongly encouraged to become familiar with the CSI learning model prior to applying.
