--- Quote from: "Moose." ---I know I got held back because of my programs credits not transferring.. of course it was NAAS, though, so no big surprise there.

No surprise at all to me. These programs screw kids over every day with the bogus "your credits will transfer" line. Obviously, as you stated, NAAS credits don't transfer.

I believe that Morgans’ current high school, AAS and the Bend High school are all in the same state. If she will be getting her academics from the Bend school then the easiest thing to do is to call (or have her parents call) and see if the credits earned will be transferable. Being in the same state is easy to resolve.
Every parent that I met had resolved this with their local school system way before their kids started in the program. So this was never an issue.
A couple of phone calls and you will have the answer one way or another.

But there would be no education before she reach the Read Campus. If you read their homepage, you will notice that there is no education at the Lodge Campus where Morgan starts out. The Lodge Campus, which her mother didn't tour, is focused to get the girls to buy the program. Education will disturb this process.

I agree, Oscar, Many programs are set up this way. During the initial phase the kids are getting acclimated with the programs rules and high structure. Once this is accomplished and the kids feel safe they can settle down and start their academics. I couldnt see anybody being able to study during wilderness, but once they get onto the main campus there is nothing but time and if they utilize it well they can accomplish a lot academically.
