COA has two different options for your student's success!

After the district surveyed Newberg families it was determined parents are looking for some education enhancements for their students. Well, we heard you and that is exactly what we are doing!

Traditional COA (aka Full Time COA) is one of the alternatives to in-person learning. In Traditional COA, students are self-directed to work through online curriculum at their own pace. They do not join teachers or classes regularly online, but have a variety of supports by licensed teachers, tutoring options, and a stipend for elective activities.

COA and Neighborhood School Classes (Hybrid) combines the self-directed learning of COA with a variety of options for in-person instruction at a local, neighborhood school, dependent upon class sizes and availability at the neighborhood school. COA staff can work with students and families to customize a variety of options that best meet the needs of their students.

In-Person and Online classes are offered several times throughout the year by licensed teachers for intervention and enrichment purposes. These are optional opportunities.
