Arizona students are taking online classes by the thousands, and with a change in state law, they have more options to do so. Publicly funded online classes for K-12 students have been around since 1998, and in 2010, state lawmakers approved expansion of the program, now named Arizona Online Instruction schools. Today, 28 school districts have received approval for online programs, as well as at least 14 charter schools. Last school year, more than 31,000 students were taking classes from these programs, mostly part-time. Enrollment was just half that four years ago, according to a report by the Arizona Auditor General’s office.
