My daughter will be starting a new venture this school year. I have signed her up for an online school. She will have most courses online (obviously) as well as have some text books and work books. This is all provided tuition free and we will even be given a computer (for school use only) along with a subsidy for internet access. This is because the school is part of the public school system. It serves students in grades 3-8. We will have to show work done every day and my daughter will also have to take the state tests. She will have teachers and I will just be a facilitator. We’ll see how it goes. If it goes well, I would prefer her to continue this route (another online school offers high school) than have her attend a brick and mortar public school next year. It should be interesting and will definitely bring some changes with it this year.

that is true for the school my nephews are using. we have found one locally based that is really going to suit her better anyway (I think) I am glad now that I did not spend all summer preparing lessons! I hope this is going to be a good transition for us both….
