LAUNCHing into bright futures

Applications for LAUNCH grants surpass expectations

It is ideal for Idaho to always have jobs available for Idaho kids. This produces a positive business climate and a labor force that can fuel that positive business climate, Lt. Gov. Scott Bedke said. Idaho LAUNCH grants, which pay for 80% or up to $8,000 of post-high school training and education over two years, are on their way to helping the Gem State and its students align on that trajectory. “This is just the next step in getting our kids well educated so they can be well positioned for life,” Bedke said. Bedke and Gov. Brad Little held a press conference Thursday at the StanCraft Jet Center in Hayden to share the news that applications for Idaho's LAUNCH program catapulted beyond expectations as 12,588 high school seniors across Idaho submitted or started applications for the grants as of Dec. 28.

THE FRONT ROW with MARK NELKE: Reaction mixed to 5A, 4A golf moving to fall in 2022

"We were fine either way," Lake City athletic director Jim Winger said of whether state 5A and 4A golf moved to the fall, or remained in the spring. "But when I heard it passed I was kinda stunned, to be honest with you. I didn’t hear a lot of support from much of anyone."
