Online schools make gains: Enrollment jumps as students enjoy benefits of telecommuting to school - The Olympian
About 400 students in kindergarten through 12th grade who live in the Olympia, Tumwater and North Thurston school districts transferred this year to fully online public schools locally or in other districts. Full-online public schools have become a draw for about 1 percent of South Sound students and their families. The schools, run by private companies, allow students to take on subjects at their own pace and provide instructors to teach subjects to students who previously were home-schooled.
