What is happening with in-class vs online learning for K-12 ??
#6
Let me relay an interesting story to you about my sister. When I was going into Jr. High, we moved to Tennessee. The educational system there was easily two years behind the schools we came from. My sister was going into her Junior year. They basically put her in all Senior level classes. When she finished the year, they told her they had nothing left to teach her... except there was a state law that in order to graduate, she had to take a year of Tennessee history. They told her to enroll at UT-Chattanooga and take a Tennessee history class, and at the end of the year they would give her a diploma.

Well, she attended UTC for a year and at the end of the year went back and showed them that she had taken a Tennessee history class. Well, they backed out of the deal. They refused to give her a diploma. At this point, my dad got transferred back up north. So she enrolled at U of Delaware as a transfer student. They transferred her year of classes at UTC and never asked to see a HS diploma. So she graduated college and got an MBA, but has no HS diploma.

Not sure that helps at all, but I can sympathize about the ridiculousness of the Tennessee school system.
