## [Innovation in Education: A New Class of Coffee](https://blog.mtparanschool.com/innovation-in-education-a-new-class-of-coffee)

September 29, 2021

*Innovation* may be the buzzword du jour, but, for forward-thinking schools, innovation is ingrained within curriculum, allowing for the exploration, creation, and implementation of solutions to real-world problems. For Mount Paran Christian School, innovative learning takes many forms in the classroom, including a very real, hands-on approach for high school business students through the Roost Coffee Co.
