<p>No experience here, but wanted to offer another option.</p>
<p>My dd (a Sophmore this year) is only doing self-study. No distance learning, community college classes, etc. (We’d like to do the community college option, but the nearest campus to us is nearly an hour away – we live in a rural area!)</p>
<p>What we’re doing instead is Advanced Placement exams. (She’s planning on taking at least 4, in addition to 3 SAT-II Subject Tests) That will give her transcript ‘outside verification’ without having to go through the extra expense of distance learning. She’ll take at least one AP exam or SAT-II Subject Test for each core area (English, Science, Math, History, Foreign Language, etc.) to demonstrate her knowledge levels.</p>
<p>We looked into one distance program…I’m not sure which one…and they wanted $700 per class…and, if I remember correctly, Keystone didn’t have much to offer in the way of “honors classes”. Nothing higher than Spanish 2, for example, and I don’t think they had calculus either.</p>
<p>Just an option for you to consider! :)</p>
