How It Works
We provide all required software and hardware on our
school-issued Apple computers (most are laptops), and all
are equipped with a wireless card and a CD/DVD drive.
Students can successfully complete their classes online
using school issued textbooks, email accounts, and our great
technical support. We offer reimbursement for your existing
Internet service cost or we can provide a dialup Internet
account free of charge for school use.
Our instructional staff consists of full-time Pennsylvania
certified teachers and counselors who work from our office
in Exton. Our teachers are dedicated to their students and
have helped them become successful with curriculum based
upon the Pennsylvania standards. As evidence of our success,
21CCCS is the only statewide cyber charter school to make
Adequate Yearly Progress (AYP) for five consecutive years.
Student schedules are flexible, but teachers help their
students with organization to maintain consistent progress.
We follow a traditional school calendar, however there are
no snow days in cyber school. There are no busses to catch
early in the morning either!
Most of our high school classes are block scheduled, meaning
the students complete the class in one semester. Students
typically take three classes at a time, for example math,
social studies, and an elective. Our experience has shown
that students are more successful when focusing on a few
classes rather than juggling six or seven different classes
at one time. |
