I've never been to online school.
My daughter was not able to get into the virtual school we first looked at. However, there is a new one supported by a local area school district. It is free and does follow the public school curriculum and guidelines. But it is still at home. Books, supplies and even a computer are all supplied. So far she has worked diligently and is doing well. She just received her books today, which should help as loading the large texts on our computer continued to crash and/or freeze it up. Now, I think things will work even more smoothly!
That I'd like to see.

virtual school
I've never been to a virtual school.
I have heard of these online public schools, but only recently have any become available in our area. They are a way to get a free public education while at home. Teachers are in place, with the parent being a learning coach. Books, schedules and supplies are all provided free of charge. The ones in our area are available for students in grades 3-8, with one school having just added ninth grade to their program.
My two nephews are now enrolled in one of these schools. They have nice new books and all supplies were sent, including paint, jump rope, science kit and music kit! My daughter wants to enroll as well. There is no room at this school in her grade. We are now looking at another one available. Maybe they still have room for a student her age.

Directory of Schools
I’ve never been to the DirectoryofSchools before.
When searching for online courses, classes and schools, I can spend too much time just going from one site to the next to try to find information. At the Directory of Schools, I can get lots of information all at one place. This site is easy to navigate, making a difficult task a little quicker and easier. I am able to search over 1000 schools while looking for online courses and schools that offer online degrees .
I can learn useful information through education articles on the site. I can search by subject and/or education program. I can choose from colleges, art institutes, technical institutes, real estate schools. I can read the learning blog and even search internationally. All the online schools offer job placement for graduates.
