Introducing Ignite by Hatch™: The Summer Learning Solution That Bridges Fun and Skill Development

Unlocking the potential of summer learning has never been more seamless. Dive into the findings of our groundbreaking research study, showcasing how Ignite by Hatch redefines summer skill practice while preserving the joy of the season.

In collaboration with the Georgia Department of Early Care and Learning Summer Transition Program (STP), our study delved into the impact of Ignite across three consecutive summers: 2021, 2022, and 2023. The results speak volumes.

Ignite doesn't just halt the summer slide; it propels children forward. Our research demonstrates consistent progress in key domains such as Language & Communication Development, Literacy, and Mathematics. With Ignite, children advanced at least one level on average, ensuring continuous growth during the summer break.

But what truly sets Ignite apart is its ability to infuse summer learning with excitement and engagement. According to STP teachers, Ignite isn't just about skill-building; it's about fostering a love for learning that transcends seasons. In our 2023 survey, a remarkable 28% of teachers highlighted Ignite's role in sustaining student enjoyment throughout the summer.

Join us in revolutionizing summer learning. With Ignite by Hatch, every moment becomes an opportunity for growth and joy. Experience the difference today.
