KIPP Ignite Academy is a new elementary school that opened in the South Los Angeles community of Florence Firestone in August 2015. 

KIPP Ignite Academy is a tuition-free college-preparatory public charter elementary school that opens in the summer of 2015 in the South Los Angeles community of Florence Firestone near our sister middle school, KIPP Philosophers Academy (8300 S. Central Ave, LA, CA, 90001). KIPP Ignite is a part of the national KIPP network of 183 schools in 20 states and D.C. In the 2015-16 school year, it will serve 115 students in kindergarten; it will add one grade each year until it reaches capacity in 2019 with 550 students in kindergarten through fourth grade.

At KIPP Ignite Academy, we believe in preparing students for the careers of tomorrow – those that do not yet exist. Tomorrow will require our students to be critical thinkers and empathetic leaders who innovate to solve local and global issues. Through rigorous academic instruction, character development, and service learning, we prepare our students to climb the mountain to and through college and become social innovators who use curiosity and collaboration to ignite transformative change in our community and world.
