text: Online school teaches students how to plan around their busy lives and still get their degree. The most common argument for online school is, "Students will get behind and fail out." This is true but goes the same way as regular school. If a student misses more than 10 days of school in a row the parents are put on trail for truancy and can be taken to jail. The same should apply to student who choose to learn online. Online school will help keep students on top of their game and still allow them to do the things they enjoy. For students graduating early this helps them do everything required and go to college early. Having fun requires responsibility. Students know if they are not doing well they will have to go back to public school which would be embarrassing for them.
