At Insight PA Cyber Charter School, education extends beyond the virtual classroom. As an online K-12 public school serving students across Pennsylvania, we know that staying connected is essential for student success. That’s why our Community Engagement Coordinators are dedicated to fostering relationships between students, families, and staff—both online and in person.

Supporting You Every Step of the Way

Our Communications and Community Engagement Team is here to ensure that every member of our school community feels informed, involved, and supported. Whether you’re a new family adjusting to online learning or a returning student looking for ways to engage, our team is here to help. We aim to:

  • Share timely and accurate information with our school community
  • Highlight the achievements of our students and staff
  • Offer opportunities for students and families to connect with each other
  • Provide social events that bring learning and fun together

Mr. Handy serves as the Community Engagement Coordinator for Philadelphia, Delaware, Montgomery, Chester, York, Lancaster, Cumberland, Adams, and Franklin Counties. He brings an infectious enthusiasm to every event he hosts and loves watching students light up as they meet classmates, make friends, and leave with smiles on their faces.

“What makes my job wonderful is seeing your students enjoying their time at events—socializing, making connections, meeting classmates.”

Mrs. Burke supports families across Western Pennsylvania and parts of Central PA. She’s passionate about bringing people together across distances and helping families feel like part of something bigger no matter where they live.

“My favorite thing about being a Community Engagement Coordinator is just having the opportunity to engage with families and create chances for students and families to meet people they wouldn’t normally meet.”

Mrs. Kristen Seidel hosts events throughout Northeastern PA and several counties in Central and Southeastern PA. She loves helping students connect face-to-face and providing spaces for families to ask questions and share ideas.

“I love being able to create events where students can connect and meet their teachers in person. It’s also a great chance for parents to bounce ideas off one another and build community.”

Events That Bring Us Together

Throughout the school year, our Community Engagement Coordinators organize a variety of virtual and in-person events across the state. From local meet-ups to online activities, these events allow students to socialize, build friendships, and feel a sense of belonging within the Insight PA community.
