Only at Launch do our teachers love math THIS MUCH! From an original song performance to a drill routine, our math teachers got our whole community pumped up for next week’s state test ✖️➗➕➖♾️
Plus, scroll to see some math-themed games that had everyone’s competitive spirit on 100! We love to spread joy through learning here and celebrate the hard work and progress of our students.
Last week, some of our 8th-grade girls had the opportunity to tour not one but TWO elite all-women’s colleges. Students met with one of our alumni who attends Mount Holyoke and toured Smith College with alum Ms. Haynes! They got to see classrooms, dorms, had a tour from a professor, and much more.
At the end of the day, one student said, “I can see myself going to college now.” At Launch we believe ALL students should envision great things for their futures. Thanks to Ms. Haynes and Ms. Reno for setting up this amazing day!

We are so lucky that @fredtjoseph took the time to come chat with our basketball team about his book This Thing Of Ours, which they’ve been reading in crew. He talked about life and dreams beyond the court, how he was inspired to become a writer, finding the right people to surround yourself with, and so much more 📚📝
PLUS, you heard it here that if the whole team finishes the book and writes about it, Mr. Joseph will be back to beat them all in 1 v 1 🏀
Big things happening at Launch Middle School 💥🥊

8th graders had the opportunity to attend a Social Studies related field trip to the Museum of the City of New York!
Here students viewed and analyzed various forms of art, including: photography and other historical artifacts related to activism and social justice.
They connected learning to our yearlong theme centered around RESISTANCE during times of oppression of both the past and present.
