New NorthStar Academy Opens in St. Petersburg

EdisonLearning, Inc., is a forward-thinking provider of academic services, including more than 150 core and elective online courses for students in grades six through 12. Serving more than 150,000 students in the United States and the United Kingdom, the EdisonLearning team remains focused on building brighter futures for students around the world.

EdisonLearning recently supported the launch of a new school, NorthStar Academy of Pinellas County, in St. Petersburg, Florida. Adhering to all social distancing measures, the opening ceremony involved both school representatives and community officials, as well as parents and students. As the 2020-2021 school year moves forward, students at NorthStar Academy will be fortunate enough to have access to a range of online learning technology, as well as EdisonLearning’s extensive catalog of eCourses. These digital resources are available to NorthStar students at all times.

The new school will be overseen by principal academic officer Dr. Tanya Chauncey, a former “teacher of the year” honoree. The academy will join numerous other NorthStar locations throughout the state, which have graduated thousands of Floridians over the past decade. NorthStar is known for producing both college-ready students and individuals with the job and technical training skills needed to join the workforce following graduation.
