<p>It sounds like the issues you have is:</p>
<ol>
<li><p>You like the public school staff. Easy to work with, etc.</p></li>
<li><p>You hate wasted time.</p></li>
<li><p>Budget cuts are negatively impacting the course offerings.</p></li>
<li><p>D doesn’t like on-line options.</p></li>
</ol>
<p>Do you have a local college nearby that she can attend part time? </p>
<p>Since the school has been easy to work with in the past, I am thinking that if you approach the GC now you may be able to work out a method to complete HS classes in a block (all a.m. or all p.m.) and then take courses at the college? Or could GC work with your family for “independent study” and “internship” options? </p>
<p>What are the teachers like? I assume the teachers of the APs being phased out remain at the school. Can they provide/guide to study materials for AP self study?</p>
<p>And for your own sanity, throw out all comparisons of your daughters’ educations.<br>
I assume you do not expect D2 to automatically attend the same college as D1 without exploring other options. Well, just come from that same paradigm replacing college with high school. Each will have an individual HS experience (even if it was not planned that way). If she stays at the public, perhps she’ll take electives D1 didn’t have time in her schedule to take.</p>
<p>And know, here in PA our district is going through the same thing.</p>
