Georgia Supreme Court: Online courses qualify as “attending school”

Interesting Georgia Supreme Court ruling today that an online high school meets the definition of “attending school.” This case deals with child support, but I thought the legal finding on the virtual schooling was worth sharing. A lower court had ruled that the online school did not satisfy the child support provision that the child be attending school to continue receiving support from his father, but the high court disagreed.
