*If you are interested in attending Auburn Online for the 2023-2024 school year, please use the enrollment information below to enroll.*
2023-24 Enrollment:
- Does an online, individualized learning space work well for your student?
- Is your student able to focus online and complete work independently (with family help at the elementary school level?)
- Do student or family health issues or concerns keep your student from attending in person?
- Are you looking for an alternative to the traditional school setting with face to face instruction combined with independent learning at the elementary level or more individualized and self-paced learning at the secondary level?
Welcome to Auburn Online - ALE, a grades 3-12 online school in the Auburn School District.
Starting the 23-24 school year, Auburn Online will become an Alternative Learning Experience or ALE program. It will transition from a Face to Face online program that mirrored the traditional setting to a more independent, asynchronous, learning format. Face to face instruction combined with some asynchronous learning will be offered for grades 3-5. Middle school will have required academic workshops and 1:1 connections while students work independently and asynchronously in all subject areas. High school will primarily be asynchronous learning with academic workshops and tutoring available, as well as required 1:1 teacher - student academic meetings. Please review the following attachment or speak to an AO counselor or administrator regarding these changes and the appropriate placement of your student.
