Parents should always be alert for opportunities to make things better for their family. The more information you have about schooling options and what’s out there, the better the decision you will make for your family.
I found this wonderful new resource on the web. It's actually for schools to use as a standard for choosing online classes but it also could work well for parents as a way of choosing quality courses. Go to http://www.nacol.org/nationalstandards/ and you will need to download the PDF to read the standards.
I've always loved hearing what other schools have to offer. I chose CA because it was a perfect fit for me and my family. That doesn't mean that I don’t get irritated with something from time to time and then I need to find a way to get it straightened out. I think being a parent in a new type of school means that there are going to be things that don't always go as smoothly as I'd hoped.
What schooling options have you considered for your family? What is most important to you when looking at other options?

I have loved my experience with CA in Nevada. This is our charter year, so there have been a few glitches along the way. However, the teachers and principal have been very available for our concerns and open with any problems the school has been having. The only problem I have really had with the school was with Tech Support, but it was a problem that my family could finagle a semi-fix and the rest we can work around. The superior education my son is now receiving far surpasses any little problem that has come up.
