Pennsylvania’s largest cyber charter school expands real estate footprint in Philadelphia

Pennsylvania’s largest cyber charter school, Commonwealth Charter Academy, is expanding its real estate footprint in Philadelphia with a 32,000-square-foot site at the Navy Yard. The site will serve as offices and a service center for Philadelphia students, as the school’s enrollment has nearly doubled to 35,000 students. Critics question the use of funds for physical locations given concerns about academic outcomes and spending.
