Ashley Zimmerman pulls out a folder, notebook and highlighter for her second hour government class, then starts to read a text on the art of politics for her next assignment But this is no typical class for Zimmerman or her classmate Sarah Wilson. There’s no teacher in the room, but he’s available by phone, email or text. There’s no classroom or desk, so instead the two sit in front of computers at the Quincy High School library. And it’s up to them to stay on track with the “pacing chart” with weekly assignments for the online class. “It is all on your own. We’ve got to try to keep up with time management to stay on pace with everything,” Zimmerman said. “It really is like an introduction to college. This is what it’s like.”
