text: There are other benefits to online schooling than just distance. When a student makes their schedule for the next school year, sometimes it fills up quick, and a student may wish to take a course that they cannot take in school. Online classes are a benefit to students who do not have more room in their schedule for extra classes. Some people who are interested in space exploration and astronomy, could not an advanced astronomy class beacuse their schedules were filled with other advanced math and science classes, along with their normal core classes. But they were able to take that astronomy course online, and they love it. Onine classes make it easier to take the classes you want, and not have to make up the classes that you need in the following years. Some counties even offer classes that the rest of their state does not offer!
