Charlottesville High School freshman Stephanie Thrift was scratching her head over how to juggle daily classes, afterschool sports and the physical education program she has to take next year when she stumbled upon a solution — she overheard a friend talking about a proposed online P.E. class. “I got really excited because early-morning gym is hard to get up for because athletes are up at night doing homework,” she said. After asking the friend a few questions, it was a matter of running to her guidance counselor to verify that the computer course was real, and then signing up for it as fast as she could. A test course will run during summer school to work out the kinks and a full course is set to officially kick-off for the fall semester.
