text: Vacations around breaks and holidays always interfere with missing school. Students' families like to extend their vacations, if they go on one, which causes their student(s) to miss some days at school. If those students were to be taking online classes they would be able to bring their schoolwork with them and work on it in the car or waiting for a flight or even before they go to bed. This would help keep them caught up so they don't have to do a ton of extra work when they get back.
