Online learning boom echoes across state

Internet classes, a trickle in public schools a decade ago, are rapidly joining the education mainstream — so quickly that it's unclear what all the ramifications may be.

Statewide, 10,161 Washington students — mostly in high school — took one or more online classes for credit last school year, more than triple the number four years ago, according to a survey done by the Office of Superintendent of Public Instruction.

Home Schooling

Home Schooling in Science

If your child is among the 700,000 to 1,150,000 currently being schooled at home in the United States (Ray, 1996), you may have questions about the science he or she should be learning.
