Skyrocket early learning with Elementary Launchpad classes.
Elementary Launchpad courses empower students in grades K-5, regardless of their location, to achieve higher levels of literacy proficiency and develop a passion for learning. Our program tailors instruction to meet your student’s individual needs.
How it works: IDLA Launchpad teachers partner with local schools throughout Idaho to provide online literacy instruction, grow students’ current level of performance, or advance those performing above grade level. We accomplish this through a combination of virtual live instruction with the IDLA teacher, evidence-based curriculum developed according to the Science of Reaching research, and an interactive online platform for individual practice.
If you are a parent or school interested in learning more about Launchpad or wish to enroll your student(s), we would welcome the opportunity to visit with you about options.
