Every child has the right to a high-quality education that provides the skills, knowledge, and confidence they'll need to move forward in life. However, not every student succeeds in a traditional school setting. Some students move more quickly than their peers. Others need extra attention.

The Yamhill-Carlton Alliance Academy offers you the best of two education worlds. We are both a school-at-home community where you have the primary role in your child's education and provide the resources of a public school. We offer current technology and online classes as well as traditional textbooks and the support of highly qualified teachers. We have field trip opportunities, in-person seminars, and a variety of opportunities to interact with other Academy students who share like interests. In addition, full-time students may check out a Chromebook to use for their classes. All students are assigned a mentor teacher who will help them schedule their courses and will provide regular check-in meetings with parent/teachers and their students. For more information please choose from the menu on the left.
