At PA Virtual, parents are heavily involved in their children’s educational experience each day. It is crucial that all of our students have a dedicated adult to help support them through their academic journey, as this shows them that their education is a top priority. Parent involvement can lead to improved grades and test scores as well as lower drop-out rates, while being quite a rewarding experience for parents.

A common question prospective families ask us when beginning the enrollment process is how often their child will get to socialize with others while being educated in a virtual environment. It's a valid concern as socialization is an important part of a child's development. At PA Virtual, we offer a variety of opportunities for both students and their families to explore local attractions, meet other PA Virtual families in their area, and build strong relationships.
