Our IGNITE! Conference is an opportunity for you and fellow parents to hear about all Springs Charter Schools offers our families and attend workshops focused on empowering our parents. 


Our conference will be held ONLINE with live sessions. Registered participants will have access to our live sessions on the day of the event and will be able to interact with our presenters in real time! You’ll receive information about our amazing breakout sessions in August before the event. In addition, the first 1,000 participants that register will receive a Springs “Boldly Go” box with conference materials and goodies in the mail prior to the event.


Join us as we will explore new frontiers in brain science with our keynote speaker, Dr. Nicole Lipkin! You will surely discover a new universe in this keynote, The Agile Mind, and a follow-up session. She is the Founder and CEO of HeyKiddo, a company dedicated to building technology that helps parents, adults and educators anticipate, detect, and support mental, social, and emotional health struggles in their kiddos. 


MAY WE TOGETHER BECOME GREATER THAN THE SUM OF ALL OF US  ~Surak


Diversity is Strength - “Star Trek” broke barriers for diversity, just as we are tasked to do. All are welcome at Springs, and we Believe the Best to ensure that all belong here! Our Keynote and session are sure to include one and all!

Embrace Humanity - Dr. McCoy and Spock used to argue about the head versus the heart. At Springs, we know it’s both! We include all learners to enhance the whole child experience!

Obey the Prime Directive - Star Trek’s Prime Directive was a prohibition on interference with other cultures and civilizations. As we celebrate the opening of the 23/24 school year, we celebrate the unique personalities and attributes of our education partners!

Looking forward to charting our course to new frontiers and igniting the new year!
