The IGNITE pull-out program is designed to address the needs of high-ability learners in 2nd, 3rd, 4th, and 5th grade. Students are identified using GPA, nationally normed achievement scores and ability scores. Students meet during the regular school day for 3 to 3-1/2 hours each week (dependent upon the grade level) in a small group setting. The first semester consists of Language Arts units and the second semester focuses on Science/Social Studies units.
IGNITE students participate in planning and implementing our school YouTube news show called Crusader Network News. They assume the roles of anchor, reporter, and more. Leading roles in the Lower School Veterans Day Celebration, coordinating the Annual Lower School Toys for Tots toy drive, and the 100th day of school food drive are also responsibilities of the IGNITE students. New students are accepted into the IGNITE program ≥on a 9 week probationary period.
IGNITE annual fees:
2nd - 3rd Grade - $1,600
4th - 5th Grade - $1,800
