Tami Caldwell’s classroom is a loft that looks out through a bank of windows onto the calm waters of a lake. Her days are flexible enough that she can take her daughter to school in the morning, meet a student for a midday coffee or answer the regular buzz of students’ text messages, though she tries to maintain a regular schedule. Usually between 10 a.m. and noon each day, she sits in front of her computer for “lab” time, when students can dial in to a sort of virtual chat room and ask questions. And once a week, she and her students get together online for class. Caldwell is one of the high school teachers at Insight School of Washington, which offers full-time online schooling.
