21st Century Cyber Charter School
Excellent school. Transferred from PA Cyber to 21st....The difference is amazing. Well qualified teachers that my children or myself can talk to...not just e-mail. A challenging curriculum that fosters independence without making the children feel that they are all alone. Teachers are eager to help if you are eager to learn. Really get the feeling that the teachers love what they do and want to help your child succeed! Teachers can be reached for live help from 8-8 M-TH and 8-4 on Friday. Do the research and see for yourself. This school puts it's money into the education, not advertising. The test scores and student to teacher ratio reflect that fact.

This school is amazing, the teachers help us out on a one-to-one basis. We get to redo tests that we did wrong, and we don't have to wake up early or even get out of bed. And, even though the students may seem lazy, 21cccs has made the AYC for 7 years out of 10! It's amazing, and definitely something I would recommend to anybody who is having trouble in a traditional school.

21st Century Cyber Charter School
I adore this school. It's amazing, the teachers are wonderful, and it holds some of my best friends.
I've been to other online schools (PDELA, or I don't know what it's called anymore, I heard they changed the name.) was horrible. And public school was even worst. I was so glad to have found this school. I'm going to be in tears when I graduate, because I honestly won't want to leave. The teachers give you the attention you need, and you actually learn to be more responsible for your own actions. You make your own schedule, and it kind of just helps you feel like you have more control of things.
