West Shore CAOLA is a district–level online learning model that is vastly superior to the lessons offered in cyber charter schools.
Based upon our student needs, the District’s program will allow the flexibility of both a cyber component as well as a traditional “bricks and mortar” format. Our program is tailored to meet the needs of individual students, providing the best of both worlds.
The West Shore School District will offer the same bundle of products and services that cyber charter schools offer free of charge (computers, live support from instructors, technical support and maintenance). Also offered will be several key advantages over other cyber charter schools such as:
- Students graduating from West Shore CAOLA will receive a diploma from the West Shore School District.
