text: Online school students also take online classes to get credits for classes their local schools do not provide. Current public schools do not offer every single class to satisfy every single student. A way of students going around that issue is online school. Online school provides almost every single course a student would want to take, from culinary classes to advanced mathematics. For example, my friend Generic_Name, a member of my school's Cyber Security Club, had just passed Cyber Security Fundamentals and was looking to move on to the next unit. However, my school did not offer Cyber Security 1, so Generic_Name talked to his councilor and was able to take the class at home using an online course and receive credits on his diploma. Online school provides more information, classes, and options to students who seek a broader education.
