The Olympia Regional Learning Academy iConnect (ORLA iConnect) is an online school located in the US state of Washington. Students may enroll in the school full time, or take supplemental courses while attending their own local school.

Generally students get help from teachers online but teachers are also available face-to-face and by phone.

ORLA's Homeschool Connect programme works with families who provide K-12 home-based instruction to support them in the education of their children. Its mission is to support home-based instruction by providing enrichment classes and resources that may be difficult to provide at home.

iConnect and Homeschool Connect were started in November 2006, and currently serve nearly 400 students.

The Olympia Regional Learning Academy iConnect web site is at http://orla.osd.wednet.edu/iconnect
