The Center for Student Learning Charter School at Pennsbury (CSL) was opened to students is 2002 as a State approved alternative education program. Throughout each year of operation, CSL has continued to grow in enrollment, facility, and educational programs. During this growth, CSL has always maintained a mission to serve at-risk students who would benefit from an alternative learning environment by focusing on providing a program centered on meeting students at their academic level and thus providing them with a learning environment that is more personal. CSL maintains an average class size of fifteen students with an 8:1 student to instructional staff ratio. All of our teaching staff are highly qualified PA Certified teachers. Students who will benefit from CSL's program have experienced limited success in their current academic setting. This lack of success may be directly related to poor school attendance, large class sizes, multiple discipline referrals, academic failures, and/or patterns of disruptive behavior. The Center for Student Learning Charter School at Pennsbury is a school of choice available to any resident of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. There is no tuition cost to the student. Transportation is provided by the students' home school districts, if the student resides in a transporting district within a 10 mile radius.
