How Online Home Schooling can help you chart your child’s future

online home schooling

Reflecting upon times in the past when your child depended on you for practically everything is not uncommon among parents once they grow up to be independent. But no matter how you slice it, your responsibility toward your child as a parent never ends. Every parent is responsible for ensuring their child receives the right kind of education and has access to the maximum number of opportunities once they’re done with their education. While most parents find this to be uncharted territory, online schools in the United States are here to help you navigate your way through this trying phase of your life. Helping your child get his or her high school diploma is just the first step. That’s only going to get them through the door. As a parent, it is up to you to decide on what’s right for them and help them secure opportunities that will help them succeed in the future. Online education and distance learning are just tools to help you get there.

Online learning environments have proven to be very viable alternatives to traditional schooling methods especially in terms of costs involved and given the current economic crisis we've just managed to get ourselves out of, such platforms are proof of efficient solutions that will help put our children back on the right path to success. Earning a high school diploma isn't just about getting a degree; it’s about securing and attaining the required knowledge that will help your children chart a successful career path for themselves. Employers these days are looking for more than just a degree. They want to know what else it is that a person can bring to the table. If you’re thinking about equipping your child to be one of those students who makes it in the real world then you have got to consider the use of distance learning options.

In addition to being great for students and delivering the goods, online learning platforms offer parents and teachers versatile options to interact with students and monitor their progress on a consistent basis. Since physical presence is not required, parent-teacher meetings can be conducted online at the convenience of both, parent and teacher, and the modes of communication that can be employed too, offer you a number of choices. At the end of the day, you need to make sure your child is registered and enrolled with an accredited online school in the country since credentials play a very important role when it comes to college acceptance and job applications. Forest Trail Academy understands just how important these factors are to a child’s future, which is why our online school is fully accredited and registered with the Florida Department of Education.

Credit Recovery Courses to Get Students Back On Track

Are you a grade level behind?
Looking for a school to earn your lost credits!!! You are at a right place. Online School helps you out in earning the lost credits and gets you back on track. Read below how credit recovery courses help academic drop outs who are falling a grade level behind.

Online Credit Recovery Courses
Credit Recovery has been gaining a lot of importance of late primarily due to the increasing dropout rate in the United Sates. There may be several reasons for students falling behind such as falling short of the required credits due to excessive absence, inability to keep pace with the entire class or various other factors. In such cases, students miss out on their graduation because of inadequate credits.

The good news is that students no longer need to be worried about this. With online schools in the United States now offering access to courses online, students everywhere can now enroll and complete their courses at their own convenience. In this manner, they can earn the required credits to complete their graduation.

In keeping with the objectives of the No Child Left Behind Act, Forest Trail Academy offers you Credit Recovery courses online to help you graduate. We believe everyone deserves a second chance, which is why we offer you the option of either completing your courses online or via correspondence. Forest Trail Academy is registered with the Florida Department of Education and is fully accredited by the MSA-CESS and the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools Commission on Accreditation programs and School Improvement (SACS CASI).

Being accredited by globally renowned organizations allows our students to transfer credits to other schools and colleges in America. Our degrees and diplomas are accepted by other schools, colleges, universities, governments and employers too.

We also have a 2-month Summer School program that allows students to get back on track. By applying for additional courses and electives, you can now pursue additional diplomas and degrees while continuing your regular schooling via conventional schooling methods.

In this manner, not only can you get a jump start on college but you can also make up for lost credits and lost opportunities. Additionally, studying online also provides you with the freedom to explore other courses without hampering your regular schooling.

Being able to study online allows you to enjoy several benefits that conventional schools cannot provide. You have complete control over your study schedule and can set the pace of learning according to your own capabilities. Moreover, studying in an environment that is conducive to your progress and free from distractions will enable you to learn better and explore your course material in a much better manner.

Not only is learning online a much more feasible and convenient option but it is also an economically viable option. For most, conventional education costs seem to be pushing a good education out of their reach. With schools such as Forest Trail Academy, you can access high quality education from the comfort of your own home. We have even launched an online demo application that allows you to evaluate firsthand the nuances of the platform we offer you so that you know just how easy it can get.


If you have any questions about our programs or would like additional information on the online credit recovery courses we offer you, please feel free to get in touch with us. We’d love to hear from you.
