Enrollment Process

1. 

Complete an Application of Intent and Receive a Registration Packet

Our Application of Intent indicates that you are interested in enrolling in PALCS and would like to receive a Registration Packet. You can complete this information online: Apply Now!

Alternatively, you may contact the PALCS office nearest you for assistance completing an application:

  • West Chester (Eastern PA) Office: 610-701-3333
  • Pittsburgh (Western PA) Office: 412-828-3331

2. 

Complete and Return the Packet

The packet includes instructions for completion. Please be sure to follow these directions and include all additional documentation with the packet. We cannot complete your enrollment without complete documentation.

3. 

Attend Orientation in a City Near You

Upon receiving your packet, we will call you to verify processing. Orientations typically take place at our West Chester or Pittsburgh offices, though we occasionally have traveling orientations. Orientations can take place several weeks after receiving your packet at busy times of the year – during the school year, please keep your child in school until the orientation.

At the orientation, students and home facilitators will meet one-on-one with an orientation team member. Students take assessment testing and meet with guidance for courses. As a group, families learn about our policies and how to use our school website. Families may receive books and computer equipment at the orientation or by mail.

4. 

Become a Student!

Provided all paperwork is in order, children leave orientation as students of the PA Leadership Charter School. Parents must remember to visit the local district to sign withdrawal papers after the orientation, should the local district require it; we handle the rest. Families go home, log on, and start enjoying being a part of PALCS!
