text: A primary problem students face when attending a public school is that most times they are forced to attend the schools closest to where they live because of transportation or financial issues. With online schooling, students are able to attend the schools they wish without the issues in regards to transportation or the cost of resorting to on campus housing. For example, a high school student wants to attend a specific school that caters to a certain profession they are interested in. They get accepted into the program of their choice and are excited for the upcoming year...but then are torn by the fact that there is no bus available to pick them up. Their parents cannot drive them to school everyday because of the distance; they are now left with only dreams of what it would have been like if they would have attended their dream school. Online schooling would benefit this student because they have the option to enroll in the program and attend their designated school; also benefiting the parents.
