Distance K-12: Baker's Guide To Christian Distance Education Programs The following are some k12 distance programs K12 works with partner schoolsin Colorado University of oklahoma Independent Learning High School Phone http://www.gospelcom.net/bakersguide/k12.php
Extractions: For parents, particularly homeschoolers, distance education provides the opportunity to supplement a child's learning experience with a subject which might be out of the normal realm of expertise. For instance, if your daughter wants to take trigonometry but math was never your strong point, she could enroll in a distance learning math class. You could go beyond course supplements and use a distance program as your child's complete educational framework. Furthermore, since distance classes can either be high-tech independent studies taken whenever is convenient or a group class with a fixed schedule, you can choose which fits with your circumstances and your child's learning style.

(You can find a list of CITA and regionally accredited K-12 schools by searching the
