Interest in online learning, cyber charters increase in wake of covid pandemic

Camille Postlewaite, 11, a fifth grade student who attends Insight PA Cyber Charter School, works at her computer during class at her home in Canonsburg. She was one of more than 18,000 students who shifted from traditional brick-and-mortar schools to one of Pennsylvania’s 14 public cyber charters between 2019 and 2023.

As the covid-19 pandemic eased and Canon-McMillan School District reopened its doors in August 2021, elementary student Camille Postlewaite told her parents she did not want to return to in-person classes.
