One of the skills our young leaders will also begin to develop is the ability to debate an issue or topic; in other words to inform and persuade an audience of their peers about the validity of their opinions. Fortunately, some of our fortunate students from Ms. Michelle’s second-grade class have already begun training in this key life skill in their classes.
Our early childhood division participated with gusto in our Emirati children’s Day events including the First Grade parade which 20 First Grade parents attended. Based on your feedback we are happy you enjoyed this simple but meaningful event in your child’s school and community life!
Another exciting event took place on Thursday morning with our 8th graders who took in new information about credit hours and course selection and peppered us with questions about their future life at Ignite High School. They asked us many questions about their elective choices, SAT and EMSAT testing, varsity athletics, and about their secondary education- to-college-to-career pathways!
We are looking forward to discussing this next chapter of Ignite’s development with the parents of our incoming freshman class at two upcoming events:
Tuesday, March 22nd, 11:00 am-12:00 pm in the Multi-Purpose Room
Thursday, March 24th, 2:00-3:00pm in the Multi-Purpose Room
A third session to be held upon our return from Spring Break will be announced shortly.

- March 21 - UAE Mother's Day Appreciation
