Landry Spring Specials

[HeatherL]

We are new to the idea of online classes for schooling and I have been reading great reviews of Landry.  I love their list of classes and think I finally understand how buying the credits works.  The two spring specials I have seen today have included one free generic online semester for 2016-2017 to only be used by a new family.  Did anyone purchase one of these specials who would be willing to gift this credit to us?  I am just worried about spending a lot of money on an online class, since my son has never done them before, and it being a bust and a waste of money.  I am hoping a special pops up for just a single semester credit, but I don't know if that will happen.

 

Thank you!!

I'm not buying anything from the current specials so can't help you with a generic semester. If you sign up for Landry's email, they occasionally offer discounts that are pretty good. Your post doesn't include the age of your son, but my girls began online classes as middle schoolers and have been fine with them. Check out Virtual Homeschool Group for next school year. They offer some free online classes. Class offerings vary each year depending on volunteer availability. It's tough to get into the classes unless you are a volunteer or a donor but as far as I know there's no suggested minimum amount to donate. Volunteers and donors get first chance at class registration. HTH
