When a child is enrolled at PA Distance they receive shipments with all of the necessary materials required for the entire school year including technology equipment, school supplies, and class-specific items like novels, music equipment, art supplies, and laboratory gear.
Although many of these class-specific items are not shipped out to each student until their schedules are finalized, new students receive a Technology Kit and (new and returning students receive) a Welcome Kit before the very first day of school.
