Sounds like she will be getting plenty of socialization in this new program, and because she is finishing highschool online she is going to get a well rounded education. I don't see this any different than a Montessori or a trade school route.
It may not be the right trend to set for everyone but I think it's just as naïve to think that traditional public / private highschool or homeschool / online school is the right path for everyone. It's a case by case basis, Our school system as we know it hasn't been around for very long and as a matter of a fact is criticized pretty heavy for being inefficient. I wasn't around in the Greek / Roman days but I'm sure they did things pretty different and they probably had inefficiencies and benefits to what they did.
Lastly I feel a lot of the criticism comes from FUD. Finding something you love to do is not as common as you might think and is a huge factor in success. I took an unconventional education myself and found the most important aspect of all my of learning was that I did something I loved and I tackled it hard which lit my desires for all kinds of other knowledge.
