Launch sessions: 
Session 1: June 7–30
Session 2: July 7–30

All Launch full-credit courses can be taken during one-month only (for example, June only or July only) or over the course of two months (semester 1 in June; semester 2 in July). Half-credit courses must be taken in a one-month session. Districts who choose to allow students to earn credits in both June and July will need to note this in their DESE summer application.

Launch invites students in grades 1-5 to participate in engaging summer programming and theme-focused courses for both June and July! All elementary enrichment and academy offerings provide remediation services and extended support for elementary learners.
