Welcome!

The Online Jewish Academy (OJA) is an emerging 501(c)(3) established by a grant from the Jewish Community Foundation of Los Angeles, under the fiscal sponsorship of the BJE – Builders of Jewish Education.

OJA has partnered with Milken Community High School, New Community Jewish High School, Shalhevet School, YULA Boys and YULA Girls High Schools, to broaden the population that they’re able to effectively serve, especially increasing access to students with learning differences.  Students and families choose the campus that works best for them, geographically, socially and religiously. Together with the home campus and OJA staff, careful consideration is given to designing a program and schedule that work for each student.  Students spend their days on campus, taking some of their courses in a traditional classroom and some using OJA’s online/blended courses.  Students are fully engaged in campus life, including participation in community events, extra-curricular activities, sports and clubs.
