Ignite Academy is an independent Christian School serving families in the Tampa Bay Area. The website developer who built their initial website was no longer available, so Justin Gingerich of Ignite Academy contacted OurChurch.Com about making a few changes to their old website.
Those changes to the old site were sufficient for a while, but eventually Justin reached out to us about building a brand new website for their Christian school.
I asked Justin if he would share with us his thoughts on their old website, the website building process, and how their new website has impacted their school.
Q: Please provide a 3-4 sentence description of your organization.
A: Ignite Academy is a growing Christian elementary school. The mission of Ignite Academy is to ignite boundless growth in all of our learners by immersing them in an environment of real health (mental, physical, and spiritual health). Through a health focused educational environment, learning comes naturally as we help our kids to reach their potential in Christ.
Q: Tell me about the issues you were struggling with before you contacted OurChurch.Com.
A: Our biggest issues were finding new potential families and properly conveying our value as a school to these families.
Q: What was the process like working with OurChurch.Com?
A: The team at OurChurch.Com was great to work with in the creation of our website. The first iteration of our website was not what we were looking for and they worked hard to make it how we wanted. So we ended up with the website having the look, feel and functionality we were hoping for when we started the process of creating a new website.
Q: What has the impact been on your organization after the website has launched?
A: We have had a large increase in the number of potential families we have connected with through our website. With the help of our website connecting us with new potential families and better conveying our value as a school, we have increased our enrollment from 14 learners last school year to 37 learners this school year.
