[quote=Anonymous]I don’t think I’d have picked this option for my kids but I also had no idea it existed. My own kids greatly benefit and prefer in person classes so I’m glad they found schools that worked for them. At the same time, there are plenty of bright, hardworking kids who don’t make the cut who would have been successful if they had. Sometimes it was just one semester with a traumatic event/illness (happened to my own kid) or the requirement to take a course in an area they struggled with that will never matter in college or their career (think foreign language). These kids deserve a chance and I think it says something about their grit that they are willing to try the back door rather than walking away from their dream.[/quote]
