Online education enrollment has skyrocketed as parents and families search for a more individualized education for their children. Nancy Toups, a former public school teacher who home schooled three of her children, started eLearningK12 with two other teachers in 1999, seeking to provide individualize education in an efficient manner. They started in Toups’ Thibodaux loft with less than 20 students. Now, enrollment is over 1,000 with students from across the country and locations in Thibodaux, Houma and Baton Rouge. Earlier this month, eLearningK12 received a perfect score in its evaluation from the state Department of Education.
