Full-time Online Learning Programs

While full-time online learning programs or "online schools" are not for everyone, here are a few reasons why it works for many students:

• The student is academically advanced and the classroom pace moves too slowly
• The student is academically challenged in certain subjects and the classroom pace is too fast
• The student does not fit in socially or is sensitive to being bullied
• The student who could benefit from a more individualized approach
• The student is an elite athlete or youth performer with a busy travel schedule
• The student is homebound for various reasons, perhaps undergoing medical treatment
