PALCS’s vision is to provide parents with an option for public education that tailors an educational experience to the unique needs of their child and allows them to receive that experience via the World Wide Web. The PALCS’s curriculum incorporates differentiated teaching within a strong academic environment. PALCS’s teachers are encouraged to develop their own curriculum, additional resources and alternative learning styles to ensure that each student experiences the pedagogy that is most effective for him/her. Individualized Program of Instruction (IPI) for each student. The IPI partners with the parent to provide each student a chance to learn. It considers the student’s unique learning issues, schedules and motives. Live teachers provide lessons in online classrooms. This allows students to attend class and do classwork wherever they connect to the Web. Two-way technology that allows for live classroom instruction. Also, live chat rooms, live individual instruction as well as timely responses to submitted work. Routine conferences for students to allow them to excel in an area or discipline.
