I’m done with my High school, Finishing High school Online or Home school?

well, I go to school in Georgia and I would be the second class to graduate from WHS, so far I have had very few decent teachers, I’ve wanted to transfer or homeschool the whole time I’ve been there, they’ve messed up my schedule each year and finally I told my mom I had enough and I wanted to transfer (when I got my schedule at student orientation)

but personally I would love to do online courses or homeschool even, does anyone know of good resources for homeschool or online courses?

I would really appreciate it,

I know it seems petty for a teenager to hate a highschool but my administration and counselors are not up to par, I have been behind in math credits after I had a bad teacher in 9th grade. It’s really a horrible excuse of a joke.

I really just want to gain all of my credits so I can go to a decent school.

I was in a similar situation. I had horrible teachers and administration that didn’t care. Not to mention horrible peers who’s only thoughts seemed to be on sex and parties.

There is free virtual public schools in some states. Check k12 to see if your state offers something like this (Florida has FLVS for example)

If not there are many correspondence high school programs, I personally use JMHS but if you are not too worried about college, Pennfoster also has a decent program that requires less credits.

JMHS offers more academically challenging courses (Academic English and regular english for example) and so do other programs such as Keystone ( although key stone cost a bit more).

Google high school correspondence schools and you’ll find plenty. Although, do some research on accreditation, this is very important. You want to make sure the school you’re using in accredited by a regional accrediting agency or else your diploma may not be recognized. (One of these agencies is Southern Association of colleges and schools, SACS)

There are alot of options out there, hope I could help.

Good luck!

www.hslda.org is where you can find the laws for homeschooling in your state.

www.k12.com you can find a public online school.

www.connectionsacademy.com is also another place to find a public online school.

I use Penn Foster High School. It’s a private correspondence school. It’s $900 for all four years of high school. It’s cheaper if you send in your transcripts. You can even pay monthly, $34. It’s an independent study course, which means you can do it on your own. It’s very understandable and you learn a lot.

If your over the minimal age and are allowed to drop out of high school, than you always could take the GED. Most states have in place programs to get people ready to take the test and usually are free are charge a nominal fee. And as far as I have encountered the GED has been accepted in place of a real high school diploma with out any problems.

I also live in GA, and I was homeschooled for a few years in middle school. My sisters graduated from home school, and it is much harder in GA to get into college when you’re coming out of home school! If you can, I would recommend transferring to a different public/private school.

However, if you think you can handle it, then do it.
