text: Lastly, online school could be beneficial because it can limit distractions. While in school, kids may start talking to their peers instead of doing the work or paying attention, and this can lead to a decrease in their test scores. If a student was at home, they could sit in a quiet room and put all of their attention towards their school work. Other distractions may also be limited, such as drama going on at school, which can cause kids to get into fights or only think about the incident that just occurred. Again, if the student was in a quiet room working on school, these unnecessary distractions could be avoided.
