On-Line Learning Offers Alternative

New alternative education option expanding

Some alternative education students are finding a new way to receive their high school diplomas.The Widening Advancement for Youth (WAY) Program, a nonprofit organization that began two years ago, allows students to earn a diploma from their local school district without attending actual classes. Instead, students get a computer and Internet access at home to complete projects that are designed to meet state educational standards in multiple subjects, allowing them to earn multiple credits through a single project.
