How Do I Add Child & Parent Accounts to Ignite™?

Administrators and Teachers can add children to Ignite at any time of the year.

If you do not see some of the options below, your organization may be using automated rostering. Check to see whether the child exists on the View All Children page.

If you are new to Ignite and are adding the very first children to your organization, your setup experience will guide you to options for adding children.
