Dear parents: 
Summer will be here soon and SPS will be ready to offer students exciting, online learning options for all ages in June. We are introducing Explore to Go! for elementary students grades 1-5. Middle school and high school students will be able to proceed with online learning through Launch, Springfield Public Schools' online learning platform.


Here's what you need to know:
