The 8th grade Lone STAAR Launch covers 6th, 7th, and 8th grade Readiness and Supporting standards.

How does the licensing work?

Each teacher needs their own individual license. The license allows teachers to use it with all of their classes. Professional development for Lone STAAR Launch is sold separately. 

What is the difference between a teacher-purchased license and a school-purchased license?

A teacher-purchased license is paid for directly by the teacher. It is a one-time purchase and the license is owned by the teacher. The materials can be used only by that teacher at whatever school the teacher moves to in the future.

A school-purchased license is purchased for each teacher with school funds. It is a one-time purchase and the license stays with the school. If the original teacher leaves the school, they may not take the materials with them. Their login will be reassigned to a teacher of the school's choosing.
