Virtual Course Enrollment

SPS students who wish to take virtual courses for the 2025-2026 school year through Launch Virtual Learning may contact the Executive Director of Virtual Learning, Dr. Nichole Lemmon (nlemmon@spsmail.org) for assistance. Enrollment is open for all students grades K-12.

Missouri Course Access and Virtual School Program (MOCAP) provides online learning opportunities to students in Missouri. MOCAP's mission is to offer Missouri students equal access to a wide range of high quality courses and interactive online learning that is neither time nor place dependent.

The Springfield Public School District's preferred provider is Launch Virtual Learning. Launch is operated and overseen by Springfield Public Schools. Launch currently offers over 500 courses with full-time and part-time programming available for students in grades K-12. Courses are designed by Missouri teachers and aligned to the state standards. A formal review process is built into all course development to ensure high quality and rigor. Students wishing to take advantage of online learning opportunities will do so through Launch and may enroll at their home building or through the Launch office. To schedule an appointment, or for more information, please contact 417-523-0417.

If a student wishes to pursue an online class offering through other MOCAP options outside of Launch, he/she may apply to do so directly through the vendor. Please contact Dr. Nichole Lemmon, Director of Virtual Learning and Strategic Planning, nlemmon@spsmail.org, to discuss virtual learning options.

Additional information regarding virtual course processes and procedures can be found in the Virtual Course Handbook.
