Who We Are

Oregon Virtual Academy (ORVA) is a 100% tuition-free online public school.

About ORVA

We focus on flexible, individualized learning, and a safe and engaging environment for students choosing not to attend traditional schools. Our primary goal is to partner with families to keep the love for learning alive in their homes.

We believe learning can occur anywhere, and all students are capable of greatness. It is our job as educators to provide opportunities for our students to find their greatness.

We know that no two students are alike. ORVA is dedicated to meeting students where they are and guiding them towards fulfilling their true potential.

It is my pleasure to welcome you to the ORVA school community. We hope you find this website a helpful resource as you start or continue your academic journey with us. Since our launch in 2008, we have valued the individual talents and needs of each student walking through our virtual doors. Our highly committed staff utilizes a variety of approaches and tools to help your student reach their academic potential. We value the family unit and believe that forming a strong partnership between home and school is the first step in the journey to success. Through early and consistent communication, we strive to get to know our students and their families so that we can supply just the right amount of support.

At ORVA, we truly believe that when a school has no walls, learning has no boundaries. Our students thrive using our comprehensive curriculum, user-friendly platforms, and live support from their teachers and other school staff. We consistently monitor student engagement and achievement to ensure that students are on the right track. We have developed supports and programs to address individual needs and remove barriers to academic success. I hope that you browse the different sections of this website to read about all we have to offer. Feedback from our school community is highly valued and we continually look for ways to improve and strengthen our programs.
