Online learning can help address South Carolina’s high dropout rate. The vast majority of dropouts – 88 percent – don’t drop out because of failing grades. They do so largely because they are not mentally engaged with what’s happening at school. Online learning can give many of these young people a second chance by giving them access to innovative educational techniques tailored to their specific needs.
Online learning allows the public education system to move beyond brick and mortar buildings and connect with students on a one-to-one basis – making a high-quality education accessible to students in high-poverty and rural areas, and giving dropouts a second chance.
