Ignite Students is the Mission Portrait™ and 7 Igniters™ curriculum — developed by Wildfire Leadership and delivered through Ignite Academy's programming. This is the foundation of everything we do. It equips middle and high school students with a clear sense of identity, purpose, emotional intelligence, and the life skills they need to thrive.
Every student can face barriers — no matter their background or season of life. Some lack direction. Some aren't planning on a four-year college. Some are navigating generational poverty or just need someone to believe in them. This program meets students where they are and helps them uncover their purpose, strengthen their decision-making, and develop the confidence to lead themselves and others.
