CASD Customized Cyber (C3) Learning is a non-traditional, online program provided by CASD that recognizes every student has a unique way of learning. C3 Learning provides their online students with a quality education using Odysseyware (OW) as the curriculum provider which is asynchronous and available 24/7.

C3 Learning’s goal is to provide students, K-12, with a quality education. We provide locally Pennsylvania certified instructors, the opportunity for a flexible schedule and an overall positive learning experience. Courses will be selected in conjunction with established CASD course requirements.Students must be registered CASD students in order to participate in C3 Learning and will be registered in a building. Attendance, promotion and graduation requirements of the district will be upheld.

As a CASD student, students are eligible for school pictures, athletic participation, and activity participation, that take place before/after the normal school day. Elementary and middle school students may elect to participate in related arts within their buildings with special permission from the building principal. If taking part in these activities, it is recommended that all students obtain a photo student ID at the time of annual school pictures.
