Northern Academy Online

Northern York County School District is a charter member district for CAOLA (Capital Area Online Learning Association)
Overview
An analysis of online learning needs in the Capital Area region conducted through the CAIU concluded that there is a substantial and rapidly increasing demand for student instruction that incorporates technology using online courses. School Districts in the Capital Area region came together as the Capital Area Online Learning Association (CAOLA) to enter into contracts for services, develop courses, and administer a viable, cost-effective and quality online learning solution for students. The Northern Online Academy is an OPTIONAL program that students have to enroll into.  Enrollment is not automatic even after completing an application.  This optional program has strict guidelines and expectations. Mobile users, keep scrolling for an informational video and PowerPoint about the CAOLA program.
