Pennsylvania Leadership Charter School (PALCS) serves students across the state of PA. Check out our online high school program if you or a student in your life needs a high-quality, individualized education.
We Offer a Strong Academic Program and Individual Support
As an alternative to traditional high school, we offer flexible online high school courses taught by experienced, qualified, and enthusiastic teachers. Our courses are designed to meet the academic standards set by the state, and we offer traditional courses alongside exciting electives and college-prep and Honors classes.
We encourage students to be self-directed and motivated in their studies, but we also give them resources to help them succeed, including regular teacher office hours, homework help, and guidance counseling.
We also offer a number of exciting extra-curricular activities to help students develop their interests, feel included in our community, and enjoy their online high school experience. At PALCS, students can enjoy field trips, school dances, clubs, and recurring activities with students from across Pennsylvania.
They can even pursue opportunities in the arts with our Center for Performing and Fine Arts or seize the chance to travel to another country for educational travel.
We Prepare Students for Life After High School
High school is a crucial time in which students undergo a great deal of personal development. At PALCS, we believe that this personal development should include the acquisition of critical skills that enable students to succeed. We want our students to not only graduate successfully but also to thrive as they pursue careers and further educational opportunities after high school.
To this end, our online high school curriculum is designed to help students excel academically and gain experience. We offer continuous support and encouragement as students learn communication, time-management, and collaboration skills. We also provide special programs, like our Professional Studies Program and University Scholars Program, to give a leg-up to students who are interested in a particular field or in attending university.
