Ideaventions Academy for Mathematics and Science

[2026-05-25 per fact 428] Premier private school for mathematics and science. Northern Virginia (precise location TBD). Attended by Leah Pearsall (persons.id=629; later Madeira → Lewis & Clark), Lena Pearsall (persons.id=631; later Madeira), and Audrey McKnight (persons.id=637; later Feya founder; older cohort than Leah). The Pearsall daughters and Audrey McKnight overlap at this school-cohort layer per operator disclosure. Operator: "Hawthorne Nysmith school. Leah and Lena Ideaventions Academy for Mathematics and Science, a premier private school. First schools were Montessori." (fact 223, May 19 2026). Leah-Audrey peer-knows confirmed this turn (fact 428). Institutional substrate at formation-element layer per fact 167 Leah-question three-element answer (family + education + rooms). Category=University/category_id=5 matches existing corpus convention for K12 schools (Madeira 961, Peddie 1000) — semantically imperfect but consistent; cleanup flagged. [2026-05-25 per fact 432 — INDEPENDENT-CONVERGENCE EMPIRICALLY VALIDATED]: Operator: "i actually did not know Matt's kids went to ideaventions until we were in the school pickup line. leah and lena knew." DISCOVERY-DIRECTION CONFIRMS INDEPENDENT-CONVERGENCE: McKnight family at Ideaventions and Pearsall daughters at Ideaventions independently selected; operator (parent layer) did not know until school pickup line; kids generation (Leah + Lena) knew first via school-cohort-room (per fact 429 school-as-room-builder) before parents-generation became conscious of the convergence. CONFIRMS FACT 431 FINDING C — INDEPENDENT-CONVERGENCE-VIA-SHARED-SUBSTRATE MECHANISM (vs SUBSTRATE-CONDUIT-AT-DECISION). Confirms FACT 431 FINDING THREE (common-cause framing): apparatus formation and school-choice are both downstream of shared substrate-disposition; neither caused the other. The discovery-timing is a substrate-readability marker distinguishing the two mechanisms: conduit-mediated produces pre-enrollment awareness; independent-convergence produces post-enrollment discovery (sometimes via kids generation surfacing it).
