I can't wait for the day I can block out those memories of fighting with the schools. I honestly think I won't know how to act. LOL! ne

Yikes, I wouldn't recommend a school that just sent assignments to you online. Where is the teaching in that? If you would do that, why not call it homeschooling vs. e-schooling. I guess because someone else is grading your work? I'd take the extra time to find an e-school with live teaching if that is what is important to you. I haven't seen the other kind.

Not all online schools are the same. Some may be "live" with direct teaching in real time. Others are simply assignments being e-mailed back and forth.

Thanks Roxanna, it's about time one did. I'm not exhaling yet though. I've learned from the past that the shoe is always ready to fall off the other foot. ne
