Comes news today that Complete Guide to Online High Schools has been selected as one of the top fifteen virtual school books. This ranking comes from the blog of Dr. Michael Barbour who, if you know anything about virtual learning, would know that he’s one of the guys. To say I am pleased would be an understatement.
Makes me more determined to finish the second edition by the fall.

While all of our information on online high schools in California will continue to be hosted here, I did want to let readers know about a new site in case they come across it out on the Internet. California Online High Schools offers information only on schools in California and all of the links for schools point back to this website. It’s just a way for us to bring more participants into the mix here at Best Online High Schools.
Again, there is nothing there that we do not have here. Actually, there is less information on California schools over there. BestOnlineHighSchools.com continues to be the premier site for information on online high schools around the world.
