Online schooling?

-Is it legal in any state?


-How is it like?


-Where can I find Online schooling sites for the state of SC?


-Does it save your online schooling records so you can graduate?


-Do you have to do it during the summer too?


I'm asking this because I wanna do at least one year of Online schooling then 'go' to the actual non-online High school the next year. And I want to know if they can pass you into the next grade IN the actual school, even though you didn't actually 'go' to school that other year.

Online schooling?
No because its perfectly fine here (im in cali and ive done it before)





its great!One drawback is that you MAY not get as much excercise unless you get out and do things a little more often than usual, but when i was doin it i worked out like all the time so it was all good.





Hmm...not sure, you may want to look up your school district to find out the info





yeah i think, mine are actually still in the system from like 7th - 8th grade





nope, mine basically let you do the work at your own pace, so you decide when you do it (beware if you slip up you can get behind)





yep they can actually, i was online schooled for..i think 6th grade.





then the next year i simply went to the school in my area as a normal 7th grader, simple as that





oh and i dont think you have to pay but it depends on the program.





mine was ALL through the website, there wasnt a need for books, it gave the lessons and the work all in the same place
Reply:As far as I know public on line schooling is only in FL and one other state.





There are private systems. Some paid, some free.
Reply:online schools can be a good resource for homeschoolers. Do a google search for online schools. The school DOES NOT have to be in the same state that you reside in and most of the online schools keep a transcript of your grades that is easily transfered to a regular school when you choose to attend one.

Reply:It is legal. Online high schools are pretty cool. I go to one myself. If you've never been homeschool, depending on the school, you have to exercise self-discipline and make sure you turn in your work yourself. The school should have your records so that you can graduate. You do not have to do it during the summer. Summer school is an option or you can take classes at a junior college. Oh and the school probably will allow you to take a certain number of units at a junior college for free. They count as college and high school credits.





I go to a online school called California Virtual Academy. They have it in many states. ex) Ohio Virtual Academy, Florida Virtual Academy. I don't know if they have one in SC, but you should check it out.
Reply:I go to the morningstar academy it's avaliable for every state.(www.themorningstaracademy.org) It's accredited so you will get a diploma after you graduate. You get books sent through the mail and you do your work online, you send your written answers through a email box in your class page. You can order a portfolio of all of your work at the end of each year. No, you do not have to do it during the summer but they do offer summer programs.
Reply:Iv been in home-school for about, id say .. 3 years. Its legal. and its great. I have alot of time to do Anything i want. And i can get to my work later at night. or later in the day. Just as long as you can get your work in on time. whenever it may be due.





If your wondering how to hook it up. I suggest you ask your school. Maybe a teacher you get along with. if ur comfortable with your principle. Maybe ask him or her for some help.





It does save your schooling records. Its like moving to a new school. Once you've UN registered from Ur old school. And when you register to a new one. The new one asks for your old school info. So they can try and work something out to transfer all your files. And your old school Its the law to keep your school transcripts up to 10 years. So that shouldn't be a problem when you transfer.





No you don't have to in the summer. But if you did it helps alot. Its just like normal school Without going to a actual school ? It doesn't suck going to summer school over on-line. Cause you do it on your own time. Feel me ?





An on-line school is just like a regular school.. Its got homework similar. Its got all the subjects. It gives you credits. Its a normal thing. Alot of kids do this. Ive done it. Why cant you ? You can graduate from on line schooling. It gives you the same education as a real school. Just don't fall off course. Keep your education skill. Stay attention on all your subjects. Don't fool around Just cause you don't go to a real school. It all works out great.





Ive also listed two on line homeschooling sites. That works good. Iv went to both of them.
Reply:Homeschooling is great thing. I'm in junior high as is my sis. And and my brother is in high school. All 3 of us are taking online homeschooling. Me and my sister go too Calvert Online Homeschooling. My brother goes to KeyStone Online Homeschooling. Keystone is for 9th grade and up. Calvert I think takes any age. Here's a link to KeyStone since that's a highschool: http://www.keystonehighschool.com/





Yes you have to pay for books. But the good news is that they have online tutors to help your kids. They have online 'resources' such as an online dictionary, study guide, and math help. You can even make them send speacial kits that you child wants to learn. My sister wanted to learn French, so Calvert sent her a kit full of French CD's to learn from. I wanted to do art; Calvert sent me an art kit full of paper, pencils, art erasers. These aren't just for fun, it's part of there schooling. There's lots of different things on Calvert for them to do. If you choose, your kids can interact over the internet using Calvert to talk to other kids. The kids may help each other. There is a teacher present when this happens. They could have online discussions. With the teachers, they can give kids reviews on what they've learned. I would tell you about KeyStone Highschool Online Homeschooling, but I know nothing about it. Just go to this link (the same): http://www.keystonehighschool.com/





No you do not have to use it during the summer.


It is legal in states.


Homeschooling is great; kids are away from distractions and other things that might disturb them when trying to learn. You'd have to fly to the actual school though, Calvert is in Baltimore and Keystone Highschool is in Pennsylvania. Good Luck!
