The intent of this application is for families who are interested in having their student participate in the IGNITE Online & Personalized Learning Program in partnership with the Shenandoah Community School District.

The IGNITE program is a great opportunity appropriate for families who currently homeschool or participate in remote learning and want to continue to do so. There are many options for the District to support your child  that may be on-campus, off-campus, in small groups or online learning while they learn from home.

As a virtual learning option, IGNITE will maximize student learning potential using a personalized education plan that includes access to core instruction through traditional or online learning, career technical education programs, or other specialized teaching and learning.  Students will be engaged in a continuum of service, which could include one or more of the following: online learning, blended learning, project-based learning, and work-based learning and/or apprenticeships.
 
Why IGNITE?
• Flexible class schedules to suit your child's needs and goals
• Full access to school sports, fine arts, clubs, and other events and activities

       students

Completing this form does not bind you to a decision related to how your child attends school this fall. We want to partner with you to find the best possible learning opportunities for your child.
