text: Sometimes a students' parents will take them on vacations during the school week. In a situation where a student does not have the option of staying home while their parents go on vacation normally they would have to miss class for a couple of days. However if the student could participate in an online class then they would be able to continue learning while they are away. this would also work with getting suspended from school or being sick. No more would students be able to miss school and say they were sick.
