Is Online High School a Good Idea?

June 27, 2013 by official

The popularity of online schools is on the rise.  They’ve existed in the college world for quite a while and have faced little controversy there.  Mainstream online K-12 education, however, is relatively new, but growing fast.

Currently, millions of children take some or all of their classes online.  That’s not even including the hundreds of thousands of adults who take online high school classes.  States have even adjusted their education budgets to meet the needs of young students wishing to take classes online.

Many states will pay all of the online education costs for students K-12.

But with the blossoming popularity, there’s bound to be some detractors.

Some educators don’t like online high schools because they removes face to face interaction.  Others believe that students won’t develop the proper social skills if they attend an online high school.

The truth is, many people who decide to attend online high school already have a very busy life outside of school, filled with many friends and face to face interactions with a wide variety of people.  As for teacher interaction, your teacher is always there to connect with whenever you need them.

So is Online High School a Good idea?

Yes, it definitely can be.  But maybe not for everyone.  For students 18 or under, it’s a pretty big decision, deciding between a traditional school and online courses.  Still, online school with give you a great education and leave you with considerably more flexibility in your schedule.

As for people over the age of 18, online high school is almost always a great idea.  In truth, online high school was more or less built with adults in mind.  With tricky work schedules and families to raise, it can be difficult to work in a full class load.

That’s why online high school provides so many different options.

Whether you’re 16 or 36, if you’re looking to finish your education, we definitely think online high school is an option worth considering.

Excel High School is a great school! My daughter was in another online highs school last year, but she was not challenged and was not being prepared for college.

Since starting this year at Excel, she is being fully challenged in honors courses. My daughter told me the other day, "mom, I have never had to work so hard in school". We love you Excel High School and Anna will be with you until she graduates next year.
