The Ignite the Classroom initiative is a partnership between Huntington National Bank and Atlanta’s Ron Clark Academy (RCA), a nonprofit middle school recognized for creating a loving, dynamic learning environment that promotes academic excellence and fosters leadership. Ignite the Classroom will send 400+ Southeast Michigan educators to an immersive, two-day training to observe RCA’s best practices and to participate in hands-on workshops – all of which intends to give educators a spark in their approach and to discover new ways to make the classroom fun and impactful for students.
