Title: Help River find an online school??
Post by: Riverwind on October 03, 2013, 12:49:53 PM
So...I am having trouble getting myself to get up real early in the morning to go to school, so my mom thought maybe I should try an online school, so I can do it from home and won't have to get up so early. Plus I'd be able to work at my own pace.

What I need is something that is hopefully free or at the very least, relatively cheap, that I can do online and at my own pace. If anyone has any ideas or information, please let me know. Thanks! :)

I did online homeschool 3 years ago.... Did not work out for me. I think it cost about a grand, and I never finished it. There's too much distraction for me and no one was there making sure I'd do my work, really. I would not recommend it unless you are someone who loves doing school work and can keep yourself focused on it.

If that's you, however, I wish you best of luck.

You can find many of these for free and they can work well for people.  I will look at what I can find and let you know.  I did this with my son for a few years.

*hugs Goddesss* I thought it was you, I remembered someone on Secundi did/does this, and thought it was you, but couldn't be positive so told her to just post in forums and ask instead of PM'ing lol

We did just try signing her up for the Homebound thing as was advised to us by a professional, but the school itself apparently has final say on that and disagrees (of course they do..) so we are trying to look for alternate options.

I did more research on it after I got her reply last night.  In your state they dont have any other then the one I sent.  The school boards there are fighting the opening of one right now because it would take tax dollars from them.
