A scenario of this is Generic_Name, a freshman, that has to take care of his siblings while his mom is at work. He can only go to school one day a week, if his mom has off. This puts a great amount of stress on Generic_Name. When he gets to school, he has to go to each teacher and receive what he is going to miss for that week. Generic_Name's situation makes it even harder for him to take assessments, because he has to finish all of them in one school day. His mother feels very bad for him, but without her job, the family would be homeless. If Generic_Name was able to take online classes, he could take care of his siblings and be able to complete his assessments on time; It would also relieve the stress on him. Another case of this is Generic_Name, a 16 year old sophomore, who has to work 2 jobs to help her dad afford the rent. Because of this, she misses a great amount of school time to get hours. Generic_Name is even forced to take late shifts to make enough. She tries to make up her work whenever, but it is hard for her to find time to do so. She feels as if she will not pass this school year if no change is made. A simple solution to this is allowing Generic_Name to take online classes. That would give her more time to focus and complete school work, improving her grades.
