12th Grade Student Contributions at PA Leadership School

Have you ever received a moodle message, or palcsmail from student government? Have you ever gazed at the list of courses that you are enrolled in and wondered who enrolled you in “PALCS Student Government”?  Students are enrolled in the school’s student government organization when they enroll in high school for an ungraded, government experience that they can choose to interact with passively or actively. In case you have not guessed it by now, I am the adviser of this organization. This is not the only way we interact with leadership opportunities, but it is a great place to start. The leadership center has been working behind the scenes to help students show off their leadership in their families, communities, school and the world. If you are interested in learning more about a leadership or school spirit activity, then stop by and see us virtually on any week day morning from 8 – 9 AM.

Last year we made some changes to student government with the senior class in mind. Now seniors who have taken required courses can receive a certificate in leadership at graduation. Students who take Civic Leadership will also be earning a ½ credit elective to meet graduation requirements. In the Student Leadership course students complete a service learning project in their community. In Civic Leadership students learn to manage a non-profit organization to benefit our school. Three years ago our student government decided to give a scholarship to a deserving senior. When Dr. Hanak found out about this he was very impressed. He decided to fund the scholarship himself. The scholarship is now called our annual Leadership Center CEO award. This year the scholarship is growing and available to any senior who demonstrates significant leadership initiative at our school. You may qualify for as much as $5000 this year.

It has never been a better time to graduate from PA Leadership Charter School. The Leadership Center is working hard to put leadership into the initiatives at our school. The senior class this year is very active. I am getting reports from students in our senior class who are making a difference. Over the past 4 years I want to highlight some of the experiences that I am aware of. Hanna Wilcox comes to mind as a senior working on a documentary to give our school a better public image. Julia Minster is organizing the annual Harrisburg lobbying trip, and letter writing campaign that we do in May. Jeanette Neal is the chair person of our, active fundraising committee this year. Jeanette Julia and Colleen Cartmel are also serving as ambassadors this year on the Panama language immersion and service learning trip. Brittany Kluck organized a dance and fundraiser to help raise awareness against domestic abuse. It is because of student senators like Brittany that we are able to have a western prom. Miya Gossett traveled to Panama when she was a sophomore and fundraised with her youth group. She purchased and helped install a water purification system on a coffee farm in Panama so that 30 families could have safe water. Milan Jennings is also a world traveler. In addition to being a Panama ambassador, Milan has also traveled to India twice to mentor and teach at an orphanage there. Rachelle Dambman has designed and created an adult day care diaper invention. She mobilized her local youth group to produce and distribute them. Tyler Hoff introduced our school to the HOBEY youth leadership program, and facilitated a fitness regimen at our annual leadership retreat. Issac March has served as a perennial ambassador to China for the past three years, and is chronicling his experience in a documentary he is publishing on youtube. Selena Hopewell organized a Haiti relief initiative with her church last year that started a spark that became a fire of support at the university scholars program and our staff in West Chester. Corey Kirchofer did stream clean up in the back waterways of NW, PA, and now Mr. Heme does this with numerous students annually through an environmental leadership trip to the Chesapeake. Rebekah Randler had made a project as a freshman at the Renaissance Fair that has recently blossomed into a school wide event. Several students have demonstrated leadership working with the elderly and last year several of them produced a senior citizen prom as an initiative of our National Honor Society. Our Pittsburgh students shined brightly last year by starting a weekly leadership training class.  Sophia Weber is a past President of our Student Government Organization. Sophia has made her mark on every initiative the organization has done, as well as planning and implementing a service learning project in her own community.  This is a partial list of students who have contributed to their communities and school to make it a better place for the students who follow them. It has been my joy to be a small part of their leadership experience.

Why do students choose Cyber School?

Every year our Student Government Senators work with the 8th grade language arts class to write letters to their representatives in our state government. Their prompt this year was, "to persuade their representative that cyber school is a good form of education".

They then take these letters and meet with representatives at our annual day on the hill in May. This project continues to expand every year. Many of you probably wonder why children choose to be home schooled. This sampling of these150 letters might give you a little insight as to why our students choose "Cyber school".

Lynn Parris was hired by our charter cyber school part time in 2004 as a shipping and receiving clerk. In the spring of 2005 Lynn was brought on as an English teacher after our existing English teacher unexpectedly stepped down from their position. At the time Lynn was running a homeschool support group for over 100 families at her church for several years. She was able to take her educational training and her strong home school teaching experience to fill in the gaps for this need at our school. After she had taught for a year she began to investigate how she could become certified as a teacher at our school. She came across the ABCTE program at one of the first charter school conferences that our school attended. She diligently pursued the opportunity to validate the positive feedback she was already receiving from her fellow teachers and students.

In many ways Lynn is the ideal choice for this award. Her first career was as a homemaker for 25 years. She has worked tirelessly to home school all five of her own children which four have already graduated from college, and two are teachers. She has a passion for education that extends beyond any normal career interest. Her parents both have post graduate degrees from college, and they have instilled in her a high value for education. Mrs. Parris is a hero among her students that she has mentored for the past 6 years. She takes the time to respond to their individual needs as if they were being schooled in her home. She is a true pioneer in a new form of education where her unique experience and talents have been used to harness learning in cyber setting.

Lynn Parris teaches at a cyber charter school in Pennsylvania. The name of the school is Pennsylvania Leadership Charter School. She has provided instructional leadership at our school for the past six years in language arts. In the past three years Mrs. Parris’s Language Arts classes have received the highest proficiency scores in our school on the state mandated achievement test. (Pennsylvania System of School Assessment, “PSSA”) 
She has also been successful on raising the skill level of the lower level of students in her classes. She has been teaching the 8th grade for six years. She has mentored a new 7th grade teacher this year. The students in this 7th grade Language Arts class have now reached the same level of proficiency on the PSSA test. She loves literature and passes her love for reading onto her students. She is also passionate about teaching students to express themselves through the written word.

Mrs. Parris has also demonstrated much dedication to her profession. She has assisted and helped plan leadership retreats, trips and activities since 2006. She has initiated and facilitated a book club for two years that has captured the interest of many cyber students who are typically apathetic toward group interaction. These activities would be considered extra curricular at our school. They help to promote a positive school culture of participation and engagement that stems a tide of apathy among many cyber schooled students. These types of activities are beyond the normal job description of a teacher. In June, July and August when many teachers are resting she has been pursuing a graduate degree in English and Administration.

In summary, it is my sincere hope that you will consider this nomination for the ABCTE teacher of the year award. It is hard to imagine that the person who conceived of this program to have a better poster person to validate the vision and goals of the American Board for Certification and Teacher Excellence. Mrs. Parris has pioneered the instructional leadership and teacher excellence that is at the heart of the program’s mission. Her students have validated her instruction by achieving proficiency in literacy and writing. Please consider Mrs. Parris’s nomination for The ABCTE teacher of the year Award.

My future endeavor & communication as a school administrator

When I was young my mother would always tell me, “Patric, you are a people person”. You will find a job somewhere, somehow working with people, and you will do fine. I am now 54 years old, and I have discovered that Abraham Lincoln, like me was influenced by his mother more than anyone else.

Lincoln used humor to persuade people to his point of view. He was a word miser and poet. He thought out every word before he spoke publicly. He realized who his audience was and made it his goal to connect with every person. I do not have Lincoln’s incredible gifting. His communication skills represent a life investment of verbally reading and telling stories aloud. In my role as a future administrator I must dedicate myself to study people, and the stories that motivate and persuade them.

He had ingenuity that required initiative. Lincoln started at the bottom as a young lawyer traveling a circuit. In his travels to protect the rights of individuals he became an advocate of the system that protected them. When I am a principal I will manage by walking around. As I talk to people I can tell them directly how their contribution fits into our school system.

Innovation requires risk. Paula Evans, an administrator that we studied in this class, took on risk, but she was not willing to broaden the vision to include all stakeholders. Lincoln did this by going back to the fundamentals of how the country was formed i.e. The Declaration of Independence. I need to research and discover the history of my school and the foundation of its values. I need to be able to ignore elements of our history, like slavery, that must be changed, and persuade people to values that will prepare our students to enter a global market place of uncertainly and change.

Lincoln used technology like the latest types of repeating rifles to introduce change to his generals. I am currently introducing new strategies to formatively assess student’s learning by introducing the concepts through RSS feeds that can be plugged into Moodle courses. (Our learning platform) This is a project that I am collaborating with my principal and several other teachers. This new technology helps teachers to embrace change because they can see the benefit of gaining new tools to make their work more efficient. In the exchange the strategies of formative assessments are also transmitted.

Lincoln used to lock men in a room until they reached consensus. I can tell you a story about a personality conflict that I had with a teacher. We were assigned to travel together to perform PSSA achievement testing 4 ½ hours away from our school. By the end of that trip we would either be friends, or only one of us might return. We became good friends.  Assigning people to work together, in tight quarters, is a great way to unify a team.

Abraham Lincoln and I have something in common. Our father’s died at a young age, and we inherited a great sense of responsibility from our mothers. This responsibility extended beyond his family to his country. Through the skills I have learned in this class and others at Cal. State I have become committed to thinking like a principal. As I continue to learn, I will include my stakeholders in the process of discovering a vision which will prepare us for new endeavors.

This is why I am a Cyber School Teacher

They then take these letters and meet with representatives at our annual day on the hill in May. This project continues to expand every year.

Mr. Parris

Sam Rohrer is the right choice for Governor this year in Pennsylvania.

He is a conservative with some progressive ideas. One of the reasons he is a conservative is because he would have not allowed gambling to become the revenue raising law of the land. He is a progressive because he is willing to upset the apple cart of traditional state funding through a sales tax to replace property taxes.

I would rather shake up the tax system to increase state revenues than exploit the poor by promoting gambling. The very people who will be harmed by the increased and accessible gaming practices of Governor Rendell "Fast Eddie" will become the burdens of the state welfare system. The revenue gains from legalized gambling may look good in the short term while Mr. Rendell is still in office, but in the long term this motivates our citizens to cash in early on speculative risk rather than investing for the long haul.

I believe Sam Rohrer is the kind of candidate that will invest in the Commonwealth for the long haul and motivate our residents to invest foundational assets back into our economy. In my opinion, Pennsylvania’s most important asset is the hard work of its people. The kind of reform that the Rendell Administration has initiated will erode this work ethic that took 200 years to instill. It is time for Sam Rohrer to begin restoring what our state has lost and invest in a future that gives all Pennsylvanians a higher standard of living in the long term.

In addition to property tax reform, Sam will maximize our carbon based resources to make our residents productive again. In addition to human capitol two of our states vast resources are property and natural resources. As I have listened to Sam on the PCN Network. I believe he would maximize the use of three of these resources. Pennsylvania ranks 37th out of 50 states in economic rank. It ranks 6th place out of 50 in population.  The Commonwealth’s leadership must assume some responsibility for this ranking. Sam Rohrer is the kind of candidate who will take on special interests and upset the apple cart to bring the movement necessary to close the gap between our population ranking and our economic reality. 

Can you imagine a high school prom where none of the students have ever met before?

Dear Parents!

Can you imagine a high school prom where none of the students have ever met before?

I can. I am a principal at PA Leadership Charter School. This school is a cyber school with offices in the Pittsburgh and the Philadelphia areas. These office locations are not significant because our mission is to reach out to the entire Commonwealth on the World Wide Web. Cyber School provides an individualized choice of instruction for students who have been bullied, who are bored, or who are failing in the brick and mortar world. One of the hottest topics in education today is differentiated instruction where individual students are taught differently based on their needs for different assessments, autonomy, learning styles, ability levels, and group dynamics. I am writing this article to show you how differentiated instruction can be accomplished in the classroom located in the student’s home at a work station on the Internet.

Cyber schools are relatively new on the educational scene. Our school is in its sixth year. We are applying the latest technology to develop the best practices for 21st century instruction. Over the years PA Leadership has continued to raise achievement test scores on the majority of our school’s students. We use assessments as a source of feedback to change our school policies as well as individual instructional strategies. The students who choose our school do so because they are dissatisfied with the traditional schools in their communities. When students log into the school for the first time, they are usually behind in their lessons. A cyber school must catch them up using differentiated instructional techniques. The elements that lend themselves to cyber education are independent study, learning contracts, and learning styles. We are also attempting to develop group dynamics. One of our teachers runs a virtual student council which has successfully implemented six proms on both sides of the state in schools with no lockers.

This group dynamic is one of the developing areas of our instructional platform that I am most excited about. Students may not be able to discuss the big play at Friday night’s football game, but they do have several advantages over traditional education. Students can travel to foreign countries like Panama, China and Quebec and log into school back in Pennsylvania, and talk with classmates there, while they are immersed in languages and foreign culture in the afternoons and weekends. Students have traveled to Washington DC to make funding proposals to congressmen. They have also lobbied annually for legislation in Harrisburg by taking the letters from an 8th grade English class, develop talking points, role playing, and then meeting with their representatives the next day to persuade them about the importance of cyber education.

PA Leadership has a large number of students with Individualized Program Plans. Students in cyber learning escape the stigma of having an instructional aide as they are mainstreamed into regular classroom tasks. Students with gifted IEP’s can also be challenged with enrichment activities that supplement essential content. Younger students can also take advanced classes without feeling out of place. Assessments can be tiered as a form of feedback to help place students into groups of basic, advanced, college preparatory and honors achievement levels.

The parents at PA Leadership Charter School sign a home facilitator contract when they enroll their students at the school. The amount of support that they need to provide is also tiered based upon the amount of accountability and support necessary to complete learning in certain classes as determined by the teacher. Teachers design their lessons using major national publishers tied to state standards, and their passion for the content area is evident when the students interact with the material. Parents are important partners in the process of education. The students who are not gossiping at the lockers, will be less likely to gossip at the water cooler after they graduate. Student peers have not always been the best influence on student achievement. Parents can be in the driver seat of influence to influence their student with the initiative necessary to meet their potential in the real world.

Students may not have lockers, but they do chat in multi-media class rooms with web cams and interactive whiteboards. The technology associated with computer learning can optimize auditory, hands on, and autonomous instruction. Auditory learning is increased because of voice and music added to the lessons. “Hands on” instruction is accomplished when projects are completed with digital solutions like PowerPoint, videos, word processing, and spread sheets. An autonomous learning choice is exemplified when students work at their own rate, at any hour of the day. In addition to normal instruction, multi-media classrooms are used for individual tutoring, small group break outs, and extra curricular activities such as student council, a radio station, a school newspaper, social chats, and book clubs. Cyber alternatives are a great niche for some students who are dissatisfied with traditional education. We do not have a cyber prom, however; we have a real prom. Administrators are still looking for ways to maximize technology with face-to-face educational alternatives. Parents are an important part of this dynamic change. They should consider the importance technology when they make choices about how they will delegate the education of their children.

This is a innovative idea to provide education to children one at a time.

My students have been participating in a service learning project in Panama for five years. We have this opportunity because we are a cyber school. This asynchronous learning environment allows our students and teachers to stay current with their lessons while traveling. We also have traveled to China, Quebec, Washington DC, Harrisburg, Orlando, New Orleans, Egypt and next year we hope to visit Europe. The trips have always emphasized service learning and language immersion.

The first year we painted a mural on elementary school in an indigenous village
The second year we helped do maintenance work around a catholic mission and school for the indigenous and we donated a computer lab.
The third year we brought and installed a water purification system for a coffee plantation. We also held an education rally in the town square. The students were able to work with local businesses to contribute food for 200 people to eat and learn about educational opportunity.
The forth year we duplicated the education rally and printed 400 tri-lingual coloring books to distribute in indigenous reservation, and the mission and town that we visit.
The fifth year we completed our education rally again and expanded the tri-lingual coloring books to phrases. The original mural that we painted appears on the cover of these books.

Defefending Cyber Schools

Southmoreland School District Superintendent, John Halfhill is wrong. In an editorial he wrote in the Pittsburgh Tribune. He makes the point in the article that cyber schools are stealing money from his District and not delivering a good education.

In reality cyber schools are taking the unwanted failing students from school districts like Connelsville, and providing them with remedial attention to bring their grades up. Students leave school districts for specific reasons. Many of these students leave our school after they gain skills, and then re-enrol in their prior school district.

The real question is who should determine how educational dollars are spent? Cyber schools take the student’s perspective in maximizing alternatives for them to choose the best possible strategy to catch up.
Mr. Halfhill would do better to improve his own school district instead of going on a witch hunt against cyber schools. The cyber school movement is still very young. We are still in the testing stage of cyber education. Over time I believe that cyber education will prove to be an excellent alternative for students who are...

•    bullied
•    pregnant teenagers
•    in need of working at their own pace.
•    in need of different kind of school schedule based on the demands of a professional career.

Many school districts have already accepted this and began to open their own cyber schools to meet the needs of these students that have fallen through the cracks of traditional education.  Mr.Halfhill would do well to follow the advice of my mother who always said ..." If you can't beat them join them.

Thank you, Gracias, Coing!

Thank you everyone!


Thank you in Spanish is Gracias, but I bet you did not know that thank you in Ngobe is Coing.

 Many people helped and showed support for our festival in Boquete's

 Central Park on Saturday, January 30th. We also performed the skit Sunday in San

 Felix, Santa Cruz and Monday at the Oma & Guaba villages in the Comarca,

 reservation. This is the third year we have worked on our tri-lingual coloring books. We are excited for the future as we have met new partners this year to expand our coloring book into short paragraphs next year.

 We helped some people in Panama, but the real lessons of learning

 were caught by the students who attended this trip from Pennsylvania
 Leadership Charter School.

 reader in Spanish, The indigenous language of Ngobe, and English. We wrote

 a mime skit that the students choreographed and performed in front of

 three audiences here. They also used their Spanish lessons to ask

 restaurant owners for donations to feed the people at the rally.

 They were successful in recruiting 17 restaurants, feeding 200 people

 and distributing 400 coloring books with crayons. After we performed in

 Boquete on Saturday, we performed again in Santa Cruz on Sunday

 night and San Felix . The next morning we visited the small villages of Oma and Guyba in the Comarca  and performed there also.
