From PA Distance Learning Charter School

Since 2004, PA Distance has been providing a welcoming cyber learning environment for students in grades K-12 across Pennsylvania. Our mission is to empower students to own their learning, grow, achieve, and succeed through the use of evidence-based, inclusive, and culturally responsive practices as we build positive relationships in our online environment with all students, families, and communities.

Our team of teachers are experienced, credentialed, and have the success of their students on the top of their minds. Our staff is dedicated to providing a comfortable environment for all students to learn, form lasting relationships, and interact with peers.

Our blended learning model combines teacher-led live learning experiences with independent learning activities.

We define Personalized Learning as collaborating with each student, family, and staff member to create attainable annual and long-term goals.
