🏀🔥 HISTORY MADE at Ignite! 🔥🏀
We are proud to celebrate the 1st-ever DFW Ignite Basketball Tournament, featuring Ignite Community School Ft. Worth, Ignite Community School Garland, and Ignite Community School Mesquite!

This tournament was about more than basketball—it was about family, fellowship, camaraderie, and community engagement. Scholars competed with heart, supported one another, and represented the very best of Ignite, all while living out the values rooted in our 7 Sparks.

A huge THANK YOU to our incredible staff, coaches, scholars, and parents for your energy, dedication, and unwavering support. Events like this strengthen our Ignite family and show what’s possible when we come together as one community.
This is only the beginning—DFW Ignite is just getting started! 🔥

Our scholars at ICS Mesquite had an amazing time at our Annual Book Drive for Kids! 📚✨

A huge THANK YOU to Mrs. Cook and Mrs. Nicol for bringing this wonderful book drive to our scholars. They truly enjoyed it — seeing their excitement as they picked out their own books was priceless!

We are especially grateful to Book Drive for Kids for coming out and making this event possible. Your generosity and support help foster a love of reading in our students, and we appreciate you so much!

Thank you again for supporting our Annual Book Drive and helping us put books into the hands of our children!
