Unfortunately, I’ve observed master’s-prepared graduates of online universities who cannot function in the workplace. University of Phoenix grads were the majority. I have no idea how to select a school or to deal w/this situation, so I can’t be helpful.

We are looking at sending our 4th grade daughter to an online middle school in just over a year. The online school has a far more rigorous program. They study about twice as many books in the literature class, they have about 4 times as many labs in the science classes, they do much more intense grammar, and foreign languages are offered. Our son, a junior, will be taking physics from an online school next year because our high school does not even offer AP physics. There are far more AP classes offered online than in the brick building 2 blocks away.
