How do I convince my dad to let me do cyberschool?

Samantha: How do I convince my dad to let me do cyberschool?
I’m moving with my dad pretty soon, and I know that if I go to the school that he lives by I’m not going to be able to get along with the kids that go there. So I’m trying to convince him to let me cyberschool. If I did do that, I know that I would have to have a job and be able to socialize with other people every now and then. So please help!

Tell him how you really feel about this problem. Some good homeschooling online websites are www.flvs.net and this is only for middle schoolers and high schoolers. P.S. I am currently attending this home-schooling and it is very, very strict. I think Connections Acadamy is good all I know is that I think their partnered with www.flvs.net and do a little research into it all and tell him a little bit about these schools online home schooling.

FLVS Florida Virtual School

You are required about 3 or 4 Assighnments each week for each class and you generally have around 5 Classes which include, A History, Science, Math, An Elective, and Language Arts. P.S. Reading is not a required class the kind of fit it into Language Arts.
Also, you and a parent are required to do monthly calls each month together with the teacher.
Also, for every Module you do in most classes you have to study then call the teachers about what you learned and studied.
You do not have to take the FCAT’S.
You have 30 Days during the time your classes are assighned to you and then you have to call the teacher in that time for a welcome call to her class. Then, if you dont think this type of schooling is right for you, you have 30 days to drop the classes.
It is in most states I believe but, it is based out of Sunny, Sunny Florida in Orlando.
