PLEASE READ! PLEASE. I am going to tell you all the TRUTH about FLVS and OCVS and why people say what they say about it. The people on here who hate it are people who most likely aren't dedicated to their work and they do not keep up with their assignments or they get in trouble for copying work from somewhere else or they get taken out of the class because they do absolutely no work at all. The People who like it are people who are taking advantage of every hour of the day or at least 5 to 6 hours of their day and they are working their butts off to not only stay on pace (which doesn't take much time honestly) but they will also most likely finish school faster and graduate earlier. I feel like Virtual schools really show you who is lazy and who is not. I am a 17 year old girl and I can tell you that i have been both lazy and on track with my work, I am human so of course their will be times when everything isn't perfect, but the teachers are LOVELY. All they want is for you to pass their class on pace or ahead of pace with a grade above or at a C. They want you to do great and I personally believe that Online school is better than regular public school. I literally ALWAYS get one on one attention and I will be graduating early and everything! Colleges also like seeing that you are home schooled or virtual schooled because it shows that you have determination and drive and that you want to succeed and you care about your academic life. I am very happy with FLVS and OCVS. of course i prefer OCVS because they give you a diploma but both schools are absolutely amazing! I also have free time to work out and hang out with my friends which is lovely! and no i am not anti social or anything. To be honest i make more friends now that I am virtual schooled because i actually take the time to hangout with my friends from my old school instead of just seeing them at that school. I am also understanding what I am learning better also.People who say they do not learn anything are people who do not take the time to read and they are copying all of their work. OH! and for people who think that math should be taught in a interactive environment then you are wrong. I do better with math online than at my old public school, and if you do need to interact with your teacher they have a computer connecting program that lets the teacher literally teach you one on one and talk to you at the same time just like being in a class! So if you are thinking about putting your child, preteen, or teen into FLVS or OCVS then you should :) but i would also recommend that you put them in a sport or hobby (dance, art, yoga) so that they can get out of the house and do other things too :) I hope that you choose to do online school because it is honestly the best choice that i have ever made and my mom agrees with me.

Sincerely Alexis P. :) <3
