ABOUT DISTANCE LEARNING

Benefits of Distance Learning

Access to school is not hampered by traditional school hours. Students can 'attend' school when it is most convenient for them.

Students from small, rural or low-wealth school districts may take specialized courses that would ordinarily not be available.

Students can go to school without the barriers of stereotypes.

Since curriculum is available and schedules are more flexible, students can progress at a pace that is compatible with their learning styles.

CCSDA meets the needs of a diverse population of students

Distance Learning: Is It for Everyone?

Students must be self-motivated.

Students are more responsible for their own learning.

Distance learning requires good time management skills.

Parental involvement is essential to the learning process.

If your child fits that profile, give us a call for more details!
