yes , it is possible im in 8th grade and do the online home schooling and i love it i dont know what state you live in but check out connectionsacademy.com but its only for certain states though thats the one i go to and we have a teacher for each subject, we even have p.e., a year book, and groups,so u can still meet people your own age... GOOD LUCK

Cyber school <3 lol.
In mine I have a list of courses in a drop down box. I go in complete my homework, do tests, and I'm done. There's also chats that the teachers hold every week. It's really a great experience. My school also provided me with a computer and all the equipment to get my work done efficiently. I don't have to be on for a certain amount of time or anything, it gives kids more flexibility.
The way I found my school is I did a search on google for cyber schools in my state, read up on them, picked the best one, and signed up for it. I went to a meeting took some tests, got my courses and was in school in less than 2 weeks. :P

Yes, there is. I've been "online homeschooled" since 8th grade...here's the home page: eia.egreen.wednet.edu...
basically, you register and when you make it in, you go into the courses online (after they send you your username and password)....and just do your assignments. If you have questions you can call the teachers and they'll help you...it's really not that bad...

Yes, it's entirely possible. Here's a link to get you started:

Have you heard of MIT opencourseware? College level work for free (you don't get a grade, but you can study the MIT way):
http://ocw.mit.edu
I also suggest joining a Yahoo group for homeschoolers in your state. If you ask your questions there, you'll get a ton of answers.
http://groups.yahoo.com - do a search for "yourstate homeschool"
Good luck!

Hey! If you visit http://calvertschool.org and click on "Home schooling", you will find info about CVA (Calvert Virtual Academy). It's really cool. Good luck!
