All throughout my school career I struggled. I dealt with anxiety, bullying and evil teachers. I found public school to be a place where I didn't belong. I dreaded coming to school and used to come up with every excuse not to go. I tried putting a thermometer under hot water. I went to the nurse almost every single day . Eventually I began crying in class, had no friends and felt completely alone. Teachers began to make me feel like I was a loser, and that I was never going to amount to anything only because I was different. My mom did something amazing and found a school called Pennsylvania Leadership Charter School. It is an online school ranging from grades K-12. I started in 10th grade and while I was scared and nervous, everything worked out. I ended up loving it! I attended prom and graduation. I don't regret leaving public school. I loved my online school and thought it was one of the best things to ever walk into my life. Pennsylvania Leadership Charter School has a performance art center ( music , art and dance). It also has chances to travel the world with your classmates, go on field trips, attend prom and graduation. It has a University Scholars Program and a program where you can take actual courses that count towards credits for college. Online school is not horrible like everyone thinks. You know what I think is horrible? Sending your child to a school full of bully's, drugs, alcohol and teachers who only work for the money. Not to mention a school that is dirty and unsafe. Also, a school where a child only get's 30 minutes of outdoor play. A school where a child doesn't get to be a child. That is not what I want for my future children. There is so much to think about in life but I have no doubt that I made the right choice. I will never let anyone change my mind about my school and I will forever stand by online school.
