How do you best serve students? By providing them with more opportunities. Rewind to 2012, when Springfield Public Schools (SPS) began writing its own online courses to serve its 25,000+ learners. They soon hired two full-time course developers and—with the help of curriculum instructors and highly certified teachers—they developed a course catalog of nearly 50 course options for Springfield Public Schools students.

Fast forward to today, and Launch has a catalog of more than 500 courses and serves students from hundreds of school districts statewide. Day in and day out, our team members work tirelessly in support of our purpose-driven mission: providing all Missouri students with high-quality virtual learning opportunities. And this reaches far beyond our virtual classrooms. Each and every one of our 300+ full-time teachers and 60+ full-time team members are motivated by Launch’s vision of unlocking the full potential of virtual learning and launching students as global citizens who positively impact the world.
