Online High School

Marcus Said:

When finishing high school through online school, do you need a gym credit to pass high school?

We Answered:

That depends on the laws in your state. In mine there are no graduation requirements for home schooled students. If your online school issues a diploma without gym, then you don't need it. Some online schools require you to do some sort of outside gym. Of course you can do it! You can run, walk, bike. Join a gym. Swim. Exercise at home to the Wii.
Actually, after checking your school's site, I see you DO have a gym requirement! Did you check the link to the course descriptions? Under Personal Health there is a Health, Fitness & Nutrition Course that includes in unit 4 "designing an exercise program." It doesn't say whether you use that program, but you do take a fitness course for graduation. It is a 1 unit course. That is for the general diploma, not college prep.
Before you enroll in any school, online or other, make sure you read their requirements, their course descriptions etc. to make sure the school is a good fit.
As tuition is a few thousand dollars, have you looked into any free charter online schools in your state? K12 has many. And free!
