In-Person Experiences
Learning online is an amazing resource for many students and families. However, in our efforts to build connection and community, Jamie York Academy is now offering select in-person experiences for students.
Join us for our upcoming courses with in-person options!
Upcoming In-Person Main Lessons
Botany: in Nature and in Farming
Join us for 10th, 11th, and 12th grade Botany in the small farming community of Rutland, Ohio. Study the plants of Appalachia by experiencing their habitat, morphology, and uses. Come get into the woods, get your hands in the dirt, and get the plants in you.

Class Play for Grades 6-8
Acting in a play can benefit students through developing communication skills, including public speaking, improving memory in an exciting way, and boosting confidence.
We are excited to offer a 4-week play block for our 7th and 8th grade students. This course will consist of live Zoom sessions with the director during the first two weeks of the class and then a two week in person for the production at a theater in Paonia, CO.

Astronomy
Astronomy has shaped and guided the development of math and science perhaps more than any other field. Through this four-week course, we will become familiar with the motions of the sun, moon, stars, and neighboring planets through the sky, and gain an understanding of what they teach us about our place in the Cosmos.
