The Palmetto State E-cademy (PSE) is a tuition-free public virtual charter school for students located in the US state of South Carolina. It accepts full-time students only, and "offers a unique alternative for students who have specific interests or requirements that preclude enrollment in traditional school". Students learn at home as they travel often, engage in sport or theater, or have special learning requirements.

PSE offers internet-delivered home-based learning, supplemented by face-to-face mentoring in weekly Elluminate sessions and during scheduled office hours.

The virtual high school is authorised by the South Carolina Public Charter School District (SCPCSD).

The Palmetto State E-cademy web site is at http://www.psecademy.org/
