We know that living in PA, you have options for cyber-school pathways. Consider the following, according to the 2022 US News Rankings:

Students are provided with a web-based student portal which includes access to their coursework, virtual classrooms, an online grade book, and numerous other resources.  The portal also includes a monthly calendar and weekly progress indicator to help students stay on track to finish their coursework on time. Additionally, students have the option to schedule on-demand synchronous sessions with their teacher when needed. 

Parents are enrolled as observers in their child’s courses. As long as a valid email is provided, observers and students are emailed weekly progress reports. Additionally, observers may log in to our learning management system at any time to see grades, pacing, course material, and teacher feedback. Contact information is present within the course so that a parent may contact the student’s teacher.

Students in Centennial Virtual Learning Academy receive a district-issued iPad (K-1) or Chromebook (Grades 2-12) with a webcam and microphone to utilize while in the program. If assistance is needed to ensure internet connectivity, please reach out to your CSD guidance counselor. When required, CVLA also provides textbooks and/or physical copies of reading materials and manipulatives. If needed, Help Desk Specialists are available Monday- Friday, from 8 am to 10 pm EST, in order to assist with the online interface. In addition, District-provided technical support is available for any hardware issues, Monday- Friday, from 8 am to 4 pm EST.

We recognize that each student has unique requirements for flexible scheduling. Centennial Virtual Learning Academy is designed to provide students with the flexibility they need while maintaining daily (elementary and middle grades) or weekly (high school) checkpoints to ensure students are accountable and develop the necessary skills to be successful online learners. The Accelerate Ed curriculum is standards-aligned and district‑approved for grades K-12. Courses are designed with a consistent weekly module structure which provides students with engaging content while dividing the coursework into manageable lessons. Courses include a wealth of web-based resources, including lectures, videos, interactive animations, supplemental materials from textbook publishers, and a wide range of other engaging educational media.
