For reasons too numerous to list, the lower grades will almost always have to be performed in school...but perhaps supplemented online. Besides, schools covering grades K - 12 , do far more nowadays than just teach the basics. Not only are they needed as a form of DayCare, but sometimes they are needed to supply nutrition. Some kids might get their only real meals from public school.
