PHOENIX, Jan. 20, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Life Skills Centers is excited to announce that they have recently launched a distance learning program in Arizona: Life Skills Online. Life Skills Online allows Arizona high school students, ages 16-21 years old, to earn their high school diploma, in the comfort and safety of their own home. Students who enroll in the tuition-free virtual school will receive a free computer, internet reimbursement, and one-on-one attention without the pressures of a traditional public school.
The Life Skills Center of Arizona located in Phoenix will serve as a "home-base" for the distance learning students. "The differentiator between Life Skills Online and other online schools is a home-base that provides one-on-one attention," says Administrator of LSC Arizona, Jared Kittelson, "it is extremely important for them to have someone to reach out to."
85% of the initial enrollments for Life Skills Online were former Life Skills of Arizona students who had withdrawn due to transportation issues, lack of child care, or were struggling to balance work and school. "I am looking forward to giving these students the flexibility that they need," says Kittelson.
