What We Do

Coherent Solutions: We know everything you do is interconnected. Our solutions build on your context and align related elements for efficiency and sustainability.

School Design, Startup, Transformation, and Continuous Growth: Whether you are restructuring or envisioning a new school in your community, Launch brings deep experience in coherent, systematic school design and implementation. Working with a wide range of governance models and school and system designs, we build your teams’ capacity to grow and sustain the work. We start with students, leveraging a shared vision of graduate success to drive our work and invest our communities.

Strategic Planning: Whether you need support with one aspect of strategic planning or one growth initiative such as implementing effective data cycles, our experience supporting system-wide strategic planning ranges from guiding the entire process to providing technical assistance for individual components.  

College, Career and Future Success: The purpose of education is to prepare the next generation for thriving futures on a path of their choice. Our education systems are too disconnected from this central purpose. It’s time we refocus secondary education, beginning with the end in mind and ensuring equitable access and focus on youth planning and experiences for college, career and future success. Launch provides guidance, resources and supports for rigorous academic programs of study organized into effective career pathways that enable young people to meet critical competencies on the timeline that’s right for them. We build and support implementation of college and career programs and resources, including advising, college preparation and work-based learning.

Academic Strategy: From system-wide academic planning, to materials development and implementation support, to Project-Based Learning, adolescent literacy and academic acceleration, Launch works with you and for you to innovate and solve complex academic challenges.

Policy and Governance: Launch supports state, district, charter and organizational partners to align policies and governance to a shared vision of success. We support effective governance structures, policy analysis and development.
