What is online school like in Alabama?

Virtual school students in Alabama are like many of their peers in other school settings. They access lessons and coursework, complete and turn in assignments, and interact with peers. But they do all this through an online learning portal.

Students also meet with teachers for live, teacher-led group instruction and one-on-one, individualized attention. Parents or other caregivers play an important role in online school. They support the learning day by keeping their students motivated, accountable, and on track to succeed.

And because lessons are delivered online, students and families have more freedom to set a learning schedule that works best for their family. As long as students finish lessons and coursework on time, they have more room in the day to pursue their individual skills and interests.
