text: There are some negatives to online school. Classes and tuition cost can be expensive and the supplies needed for those classes. Some online classes can cost a lot of money, more than people can afford and maybe thats why they go to a public school because it is cheaper. Going to an online school would require internet on a daily basis. Not everyone has internet or a stable internet connection so that would make it harder to do online school. The internet might be down and then you can't do the school work until it comes back up. During storms, the power may go out in your neighborhood but not at the school that you would attend. You can't do online school if there is no power but you can do paper work if there is no power because you have it on paper. If your computer breaks then you can't do any online school and most people can't afford to buy a new computer as soon as it breaks.
