Myth
Students in online schools run the risk of being isolated and have little interaction with their peers.
Fact Students at Provost Academy South Carolina can have very active social lives, and often find themselves forming relationships with people they would otherwise never meet because of social or geographic barriers.

Online Community
Peer interaction is alive and well at PASC, and in fact many students report getting to know peers in their online community whom they would never meet otherwise because of social or geographic barriers. Students interact regularly in their live classes and tutoring sessions, and have opportunities to work on group projects and discussions. Contributing to their class blogs and forums is another great way for students to interact, express their opinions, and learn from others in a less formal environment than a classroom.
School Clubs and Organizations
Students at Provost Academy South Carolina have the opportunity to be involved in extracurricular clubs and organizations through their school. These clubs plan events, activities, fieldtrips and projects that help foster interest and exploration. Clubs and activities offered are based on the interest of the students at the school. PASC encourages students to pursue activities such as sports, dance, music, and volunteer activities within their local community. Contact your school guidance staff if you need advice on activities and organizations to get started.
Partnerships
Provost Academy works to establish partnerships with local, statewide, and national organizations such as community colleges, libraries, museums, and Boys and Girls clubs to enrich the lives of our students.
