Taking Driver's Ed Online

If you're talking about the knowledge area (laws, signs, etc) then online will work great. Hopefully they even have the site set up to test that you were paying attention, which is more than face to face classes usually do.

OTOH, there is no substitute for hands-on operation in the actual operation of the car - and learning to scan around you constantly while in the car.

Enough editorial comment - good luck with finding a great course.

I legally must sign up for Behind-The-Wheel training (since I am under 18) in order to drive with a permit, but to get the permit itself all I need to do is pass a written test.
