Creating Classroom Centers
Before you choose an online school do some research. Make sure the school that you are considering is accredited by a nationally recognized accrediting agency and by the U.S. Department of Education. Enrolling in an accredited online school ensures that you are choosing a quality school and that its faculty, course materials, curriculum and student services are held to the highest standards. Does the school provide easy access and "live" student or parent support? Is the diploma fully recognized? A diploma is representative of the quality of programs and education received throughout your online school experience.
Does the school offer the classes you need to get into the college, university or vocational school of your choice? A good school should provide multiple classes in the areas of english, math, history, science, languages, and the fines arts. If the school does not offer a large selection find out if they are participants in a duel enrollment program with a local community college. In a duel enrollment program students with prior permission can take classes that will satisfy the requirements for a high school diploma and some college credits. Choosing the right school can make all the difference in your future.
