At Ignite, we are committed to serving the WHOLE child. The first portion of our day is devoted to a whole school community time in which scholars participate in celebrations and rituals to honor themselves and their school. All scholars receive a lunch and recess and our kindergarten scholars receive a nap time. Brain breaks are sprinkled throughout the day in which scholars dance, shout or practice calming strategies. All academic instruction ends at 4pm. From 4-5:30pm an optional enrichment block is offered for scholars to participate in clubs and other extra-curriculars.
