The program is a partnership with the Community College of Beaver County (CCBC) and Robert Morris University (RMU). Classes are held live in the PA Cyber Virtual Classroom, so students from across the state may participate. PA Cyber teachers who instruct CIHS courses have been approved through CCBC or RMU.
Past courses have included American Government, English Composition, Principles of Biology, Western Civilization, and Human Ecology & Heredity. PA Cyber will provide all books and materials.
