Answer 1

I go to

www.themorningstaracademy.org

It's an online 'private' school, which is accredited, and it tells you what classes you have to take, etc, in order to graduate.

It has a long list of wonderful classes!

I don't mind being homeschooled, or, doing it online. I am not unsocial, i have a job, and i participate in sports, so it's not like i don't have 'any friends'. My dad didn't want me to go to public school because he knew the only reason i wanted to go was for the 'friends' part, not the school part.

I must say, looking back on it, i am really happy he made me stay at home because the class options are a lot better and i am able to get a lot more done. I've been going to the school since 8th grade, and I am finishing up grade 12 right now.

Answer 2

Well, I'm homeschooled....And I persoanlly dislike it....I've lost all my friends, and lost the social outings....Pretty much everything....

It is alot easier, I'll tell you that, but....I wouldn't suggest it though....But some people love it! Everyone's different....

Here's a few websites....

http://www.connectionsacademy.com/

http://www.k12.com/

Connections Academy was really easy, I regret switching from it....

Also most schools, you don't have to pay for, unless it's private....

And for me usually it takes around 4 hours if I take my time....I can do it in alot less time, but I slack off and stay on myspace, lol....It usually doesn't take that long....

I've been homeschooled since the 5th grade....

If you have any more questions email me at....

All my best!
