PA Distance Learning Charter School
Cyber School – The Best Preparation for College
Independence, self-discipline, and self-motivation are the three most essential factors for success in college, and it’s not a coincidence that those three factors are also imperative for success in cyber school. Each new school year, more and more students around the country are enrolling in an online school, like PA Distance Learning Charter School (PDLCS), because they strive to be independent, self-disciplined, and self-motivated.
PA Distance Learning gives students the choice to work with a teacher and work independently, which is very similar to college. Live classes are held ...

Reflections on my Summer Vacation
How YOU can be poolside and not the sitter.
Ahhhh, Summer is here! The days are warmer and longer, the sun is brighter, and the evening breezes are ripe with the smell of flowers blooming. It’s a wonderful time of year.

Right now I’m sitting at Panera Bread sipping my favorite cup of coffee. I just met with a friend over said coffee and shared with her my business and ...
